Graduate School of Business undertakes community engagement initiative

 

Last week, the Graduate School of Business (GSB) took a meaningful step in supporting the Fiji Blind School by organising a donation drive aimed at benefiting both the staff and students of the school.

The collective effort of students, staff, and the wider community, including the generous support of Ram Sami and Company, made this initiative possible. The handover included essential everyday items specifically tailored to meet the needs of the blind students, helping to enhance both their education and well-being.

The items were warmly received by the school administration and the students, who expressed heartfelt gratitude for the generosity.

Barbara Farook, the Executive Director of the Fiji Blind School, provided an update on the school’s current enrolment, revealing that there are 24 students in total, with 11 of them boarding at the school.

She highlighted the significance of such timely donations, noting that they not only assisted the students with their immediate needs, but also served as a powerful reminder to the children that there were people who genuinely cared for them and their future.

This initiative reflects the Graduate School of Business’s ongoing commitment to community engagement and social responsibility.

GSB extends its sincere thanks to its sponsors, students and stakeholders, whose collective effort made this possible.

By coming together, they have made a tangible difference in the lives of those who need it most.

The support underscores the importance of leadership beyond the classroom and shows that even small acts of kindness can have a profound impact on individuals and communities.
