Our 5th Anniversary Shines Bright: Impacting Lives with Empathy and Knowledge.
On June 28th, BTC marked its 5th Anniversary not just with a celebration, but with our inaugural Community Service Program at the Special Correctional Centre for Boys in Oregun, Ikeja, Lagos.
10 years! ๐คฏ We're still reeling from the impact of your story. Your humour, resilience, and insights into apartheid South Africa and growing up black in a complex world left us a lasting impression.
Thank you for this gift, @Trevornoah!
