Nigerian Foreign-based Students Give A Lending Hand by Hotstepper(f): 6:48am On Jan 19, 2009
In a rare show of magnanimity, some young Nigerian students in Canadian universities have decided to give back to their fatherland what they feel their peers are missing. They have commenced the process of donating educational equipment to schools even thought they are yet to finish their own tertiary education.

For some people, once admitted to foreign universities, they forget the less privileged ones at home but Samuel Chujor, Nneamaka Madumelu, Tosin Akinwekomi and Rinret Dabeng with others came together to form a non profit organization called Bringing Educational Assistance to Many Inc (BEAMS Inc) to provide educational facilities to schools in Nigeria handicapped by poor infrastructure and amenities.
