In a heartwarming celebration of World Food Day, the NTIC Yobe Alumni Relations brought the community together by hosting a special lunch for 100 students from Mai Abali Mega Primary School, Potiskum. The event, held as part of the global observance aimed at promoting awareness of food security and nutrition, provided a memorable experience for the students, encouraging discussions around the value of healthy eating and the importance of ensuring access to nutritious food for all.
The initiative was designed not only to highlight the critical issue of food security but also to foster a deeper sense of connection between NTIC Yobe Alumni and the local community. Through this thoughtful gesture, the alumni department emphasized the role of education in driving social change, using the platform to instill essential life values such as sharing, empathy, and collective responsibility in the young minds who attended.
The lunch event also created an opportunity for meaningful interaction between NTIC alumni and the students. Alumni volunteers engaged with the children, sharing insights about the importance of proper nutrition for both physical and mental development, while also encouraging them to think about the broader implications of food security, particularly in the context of their local environment.
By bridging the gap between education and community service, NTIC Yobe Alumni reaffirmed its commitment to positively impacting society. The event showcased the alumni’s long-standing tradition of contributing to the well-being of its surrounding communities, helping to cultivate a spirit of giving back and reinforcing the importance of communal care.
The success of the World Food Day celebration has further strengthened the bond between NTIC Yobe Alumni and its community, with both the alumni and students benefiting from the shared experience. As NTIC Yobe Alumni continues to invest in such impactful initiatives, it reinforces its dedication to addressing societal challenges while nurturing future leaders who are not only academically accomplished but also socially responsible.
