Donor Testimonials

“DMGS represents the single largest influence in my life after that of my parents. The lessons learned at Dengram were life lessons. The hard work and diligence inculcated at DMGS prepared me for the vagaries of life in the world outside this citadel. To give back to our Alma Mater is not only the noblest of acts, it is, for me, an imperative that requires no persuasion. “……….. When DMGS calls, the faithful must respond: without Dengram, I would not be where I am today. Let’s all stand up today and be counted. Have you answered the call?”

  •  “DMGS is a shareholder in me. Like all shareholders, she deserves to receive annual dividends.  It is that simple.”

     

    Green E. Dim
    (President of DOBANA, Executive Director and Chief Fundraiser for DEF. Class of ’71)
  • “As young boys, DMGS gave us the foundation and discipline to thrive. I believe that DEF is a great idea. It is a long term solution to keep DMGS as the best. It is a vehicle for giving back. I pledge my support at the Sponsor Level. LUX FIAT”

    Chief Nnamdi Kingsley Offor, PhD
    (Dikemba Obosi, Secretary, DEF, Class of ‘72)
  • “Grammar School, our beloved alma mater, evokes different memories in each one of us. Our faithful recollections are necessarily diverse, even divergent, and with the passage of time and immediacy, may have become more selective or contrived. Yet, there is no denying the fact that we are who we are, largely because of the nurturing grace of Grammar School. In the immortal words of Virgil’s Aenid: Tu das epulis accumbere divum (Thou has granted me a bed to feast at the table of the gods). What more could we ask of a middle school? I am privileged to add my voice, and my purse, in creating similar opportunities for the next generation of Dengramites”.

    Beze Adogu, MD, PhD
    (ex-Tugwell House, Class of ‘74)
  • “I am delighted to read this new and innovative way of taking care of some of the future financial needs of our Alma Mater. I like the endowment idea because it affords us with opportunity to tackle this problem in a strategic manner…… Thank you for your good works”.

    Toby Okons, MD
  • “My years at DMGS were the most amazing in my life. I had the best education and made life-long friends. My journey through DENGRAM has made me who I am today. LUX FIAT”

    Kinsley Oraedu, MD.
    (Vice President, DOBANA, Class of ’77)
  • “I bought into DEF the first day you discussed it with me. I am fully persuaded by what I have turned out to be as a human being which I attribute to the upbringing DMGS gave me to be part of any worthwhile venture that promotes excellence at the school. Please book me in at $__ (purposely left blank) per year…. Lux Fiat”

    Sir Godson Igweka Uche
    (2nd VP of DOBA, DEF Chief Fundraiser – Nigeria). DSP Main School, Class of ’71)
  • “I have no doubt in my mind that endowment organised by DEF is the best arrangement that guarantees indefinite funding for our Alma mater long after we are gone. That is why I said yes, count me in! Endowment is a win-win situation – for DMGS, receiving uninterrupted fund needed to provide sound education; and for donors, remaining permanently honoured for their generosity. To help kick-start the project, I will donate $10,000 to be paid in two installments over two years. I encourage Dengramites all over the world to jump in! Lux Fiat”.
