Keystone Bank Promote Qualitative Education in Lagos School
In keeping with its
commitment to promote qualitative education and sustainable development
in Nigeria, Keystone Bank Limited, has handed over a renovated and fully
equipped Sick Bay to Dodan Barracks Primary School, Obalende, Lagos to
manage remote health challenges of the students.
Speaking on the lender’s
passion for investment in the education sector at the commissioning
ceremony, the Divisional Head, Marketing & Corporate Communications
of Keystone Bank, Mrs. Omobolanle Osotule said that the intervention is
aimed at supporting the school to further improve the learning and
teaching environment, thereby raising the standard of education in the
country.
Osotule said: “As a bank
that is committed to the development of Nigerian youths, Keystone Bank
recognises education as the bedrock of sustainable development, which is
why education is one of our core CSR pillars.”
“As much as education is an
essential aspect of the development of any society, it is also important
that children have easy access to first level healthcare while at
school”.
“The initiative is part of
the bank’s overall strategy to create a sustainable impact around
healthcare, education, youth/women empowerment and employee
volunteering. We shall continue to do more in this regard.” Osotule
stressed.
In his response, the head
teacher of the school, Mr Kayode Edun, thanked the Bank for the kind
gesture. “We truly appreciate the efforts of Keystone Bank in giving the
school’s sick bay a new lease of life. It is our prayer that the bank
will continue to grow from strength to strength; and as progress is
made, more initiatives like this will be implemented”, Edun said.
Keystone Bank, a technology
and service-driven commercial bank offering convenient and reliable
solutions to its customers has been at the forefront of various
educational and Women/Youth empowerment initiatives in recent times.
The lender recently
partnered with the Junior Achievers Nigeria ( JAN ), spearheading
efforts in the furtherance of the Central Bank of Nigeria’s financial
literacy drive by teaching children across the country on financial
education/Independence.
