Fidelity Bank Plc has reaffirmed its commitment to education and community development with the donation of learning materials to pupils in the Makoko community of Yaba, Lagos, under its Fidelity Helping Hands Program (FHHP).
The outreach, led by the Bank’s Legal Services Division, provided school bags, exercise books, writing materials, and other essential learning items to pupils of Makoko Anglican Nursery and Primary School, Aiyetoro Nursery and Primary School, and Adekunle Anglican Nursery and Primary School—aimed at improving access to quality education in one of Lagos’ underserved communities.
Speaking at the event, the Divisional Head of the Legal Services Division, Kingsley Ohiri, said the initiative reflects Fidelity Bank’s belief that quality education is a critical driver of long-term community development. He reaffirmed the Bank’s commitment to empowering young learners and supporting public education through staff-led, community-focused interventions.
School administrators and teachers commended Fidelity Bank for the timely support, noting that the donation would ease the financial burden on parents and enhance pupils’ learning experience and motivation.
The Fidelity Helping Hands Program enables employees to identify pressing community needs, mobilise resources, and receive matching support from the Bank, ensuring greater impact and sustainable outcomes across host communities.
