NGO fetes adult literacy students at Valentine

In the spirit of St. Valentine’s Day, Care and Action Research (CAR), yesterday, organised a tea party for students of its adult literacy class to promote the expression of love among people.

The Executive Director, Mrs. Joy Dogo, said the party was a yearly event to demonstrate love and to strengthen the bond between the students, teachers and officials of the organisation.

Some of the activities at the event that took place in Kaduna include drama, singing and experience sharing. He explained that the non-governmental organisation began the adult literacy class in 1999 to give adults, who desire to learn how to read and write in English language and acquire numeracy skills, a second chance.

Over 1,000 adults had participated in the programme from 1999 to date, he added.
