It is often difficult to find successful people willing to give back to society, which is why when one does, he should be commended. One of Nigeria’s foremost comedians Ayo Makun, known to all as AY, has donated a Toyota Solara to a Lagos based NGO, Project27 Africa. The NGO has a vision of a ensuring that the child who lives in rural Africa has access to education. The Project takes children in rural Africa (27 at a time) on free Education and Fun Tours to places they would not otherwise be able to attend especially because financial difficulties.
AY made the donation when he returned back from US where he went to shoot his movie. Receiving the keys to the car, the President of Project27 Africa, Uncle Speed said: “We can’t express our deepest appreciation enough to AY for his thoughtful generosity. With his donation, AY has demonstrated a deep commitment to the happiness of kids in rural Africa the category of children Project27 Africa caters for. And there’s just no way to fully express our gratitude. We only hope going all out to more rural areas and making much more rural kids very happy would help us communicate our very big thanks to him.”
