2015 PROJECT: Mission Accomplished
Between 2014 and 2015 we raised funds toward different projects in Cornelia Connelly College, Uyo. The 2015 project was the purchase of benches for the dining hall which was being built at the time. We ended up not spending Association funds because one of us, Ms. Margaret Umobong (Class of 1980), generously undertook the project by herself. We added that money to donations from our family, friends, supporters and Association members during the 2015 fundraising reunion and purchased desktop computers, projectors and power back-up systems (known as UPS in Nigeria). In addition, we purchased a monster generator with sufficient capacity (31.5 KVA) to power the school’s two computer labs. These items were donated to the school on June 29, 2016 by Dr. Patience Akpan-Obong, the Association president.
