Additional quotes by Grace Ebun Delano

Some of us decided to come together to form an organization that will provide the need specially for the communities, most especially the youth. In African culture, for those who understand, youth are to be seen and not be heard. And this started in our good old days when we were taught that you respect your elders and just keep quite.
