Calabar High School Boarding House Renovation

In late 2021 the 61 Foundation became aware of the sub-standard condition of the main boarding house located at Calabar High School that is specifically designated for student-athletes focused on track and field events. Due to the urgency of the problem, the foundation undertook the “Track House Project”. The endeavor sought and raised just over US $15,000, and the totality of this amount was used to complete renovations of the bathroom, kitchen, plumbing and drainage system of the facility through use of a local building contractor. In addition, for the school year of 2022-2023, the foundation took on the responsibility of providing mentorship and general oversight of the 22 student athletes who resided in the boarding house.
