Theresa Bola Aransiola Scholarship Scheme Launched in Oro, Kwara State

The Theresa Bola Aransiola Scholarship Scheme (TBASS) has been launched to honor the legacy of Theresa Bola Aransiola, a remarkable woman whose life story is a testament to the power of education. This annual scholarship program is dedicated to supporting underprivileged students at Notre Dame Secondary School in Oro, Kwara State.

The scholarship reflects the inspiring journey of Theresa Bola Aransiola. Despite financial hardships and the loss of her father, she demonstrated an unwavering commitment to her education. Her determination led her to seek help from the Reverend Sisters of Notre Dame, who, moved by her courage, provided her with a scholarship to continue her studies. This opportunity was pivotal in her life, allowing her to complete her secondary education, earn a degree, and pursue postgraduate studies, eventually serving in various capacities dedicated to selfless service.

In honor of her journey and the transformative impact of the scholarship she received, her children have established TBASS to provide similar opportunities for students at Notre Dame Secondary School, Oro. The scholarship's motto, "Breaking Barriers, Inspiring Dreams," embodies their mission to help underprivileged students overcome educational barriers and achieve their dreams.

The Aransiola family expresses deep gratitude to God for enabling them to give back to the institution that played a crucial role in their mother's life. The scheme represents a commitment to continuing the spirit of generosity and service that defined Theresa Bola Aransiola's journey, echoing Muhammad Ali's sentiment that "service to others is the rent we pay for our room here on earth."
