Hon. Adeogun is such a genuine person, that at a point I thought "he can't be real" but he is. He's such a gentle man that keeps to his words and commitments. He's always smiling and joking even when under pressure, he transmits positive vibration to everyone around him.

Hon. Adeogun has been supporting children with Special Needs for over 10 years, he religiously spends his Valentine with them each year. He has been lamenting how sad it will be for him not celebrating 2015 Valentine's day with these Special Children; anyway is another 'National call' to vote at Nigeria 2015 'Federal General Election' that falls on Valentine's day. He's already planning how to make another day possible for them.

Sharing School materials
Miss Black Europe International Scholarship Pageant and Improver Awards, took a journey back home to the heart of Africa to support these sweet children in collaboration with the man that believes in Education, the man that believes that children are our future regardless what class they belong to, the man that sees these children has his own. I wept when I saw how he interacts with them with passion, love and deep understanding that they are special and must be loved, cared for and supported in all means possible. I was touched.

I'm always ready to spend my money and give a little bit of me back when I see that the mission and vision is right; I was convinced, then I put my time and my money down, leaving my little Princess behind; thanks to Mother Nature she understands mama's duties. Is not about me, but the call to give back to my society that has given me so much to be proud of, this call is larger and deeper than me.

This School is Anglican Nursery and Primary School which is a regular School with regular Pupils; but has INCLUSIVE UNIT incorporated in it. The unit comprises of Children with Special needs which includes Hearing Impaired, Mentally Retarded and other forms of Disabilities. They are about 200 special children. Situated in Yaya Crescent, Ajegunle-Apapa (Lagos State in Nigeria).  

To support these children kindly contact Hon. Adewale Adeogun on +2348023179158. Support is not only financial, anything to impact them and help them to have a better future is a good support, as good as financial support.
