Strengthen Resources & provide state-of-the-art facilities for Saker

• Dispensary/Sick Bay — The Dallas Chapter of ExSSA-USA is spearheading this ongoing project to raise and supply medications and medical supplies to the Saker Dispensary/Sick Bay. Thanks to Dr. Austin Ogwu for his ongoing support of this important project. For more information about the Dispensary/Sick Bay project, please contact the Dallas Chapter.
• Chapel Project — The Saker Chapel Project is an initiative of a fellow sister organization in Cameroon (ExSSA-Cameroon). For the past several years, ExSSA-Cameroon has raised funds to build a state-of -the-art chapel on the grounds of Saker. To accomplish this goal, ExSSA-Cameroon has levied and continues to levy every Sakerette for donations. The chapel project has also been the beneficiary of financial support from the Cameroon government. During the school's Ruby Jubilee in 2002, the Cameroon government donated 1 million CFA francs towards the chapel. Despite these sizable contributions, the chapel project still needs money to complete construction of the chapel. For more information on the Saker Chapel Project, please contact Saker Baptist College or Gladys Ikomi, National President, ExSSA-Cameroon.

• Scholarship Drive — Every year, the Houston and Dallas Chapters of ExSSA-USA have taken the lead in raising and providing scholarships for deserving students at Saker Baptist College. To learn more about this project or to make a donation towards ExSSA-USA Scholarship Drive, please contact the Houston and/or Dallas Chapter.

• Concerts — Each year, ExSSA-USA Chapters plan and hold several concert programmes in their local communities. If you have never attended a Sakerette concert, please do so today.
