Engr Ekundayo Kolawole Oduntan, the founder of the foundation, marked his 54th birthday by organizing a charitable event to provide food items, money and other essential supplies to those in need. This act of generosity was particularly significant to Ekundayo, who shared that he had never celebrated his birthday since the passing of his parents on the same day.
” In 1987 when i was at the age 17, I lost my father on my May 30th, which happened to be on my Birthday, 10 years later i lost my mother on my Birthday as well, this tragedy has made me not to ever celebrate my Birthday.
