The gift of this hostel to the institution must be acknowledge and cherished. It is the member’s responsibility to continue maintaining and improving the facilities. The responsibility lies in moving the institution forward. Their responsibility will be accomplished when the school is full of children and nourishing the students both mentally through education and physically with food. This will prepare students to grow and join society as productive citizens to further improve their communities. While we are aware that quarrels and differences of opinions happen between trustees, supervisors and students, they will not happen at this intuition. If any difficulties arise a solution will be found accordingly.
