About BHS Saki Alumni Association of North America
Baptist High School Alumni Association of North America was founded in 2006. The association started through connection among fellow alumni who were based in New York and Chicago. The foundation members had a strong desire to support one another and do life together. The camaraderie was further inspired by the passing of a notable alumnus, Dr. Larinde Akinyele, about the same period. With one alumnus connecting another to the group, Baptist High School Alumni Association of North America was founded. . Chief Awolola, Mr Ade Oyelami, Professor Dejo Afolayan, Mr. Ade Bello & Mr. Sunday Adegbola were instrumental to the formation of the group. Rev Ige and Professor Afolayan were the founding President and General Secretary, respectively. Notable accomplishments of the association since founding includes:
- Construction of the 16-unit toilets system for the school;
- Sponsorship of students’ awards;
- Financial support to the home group for the celebration of the Golden and Diamond Jubilees;
- Successful annual (lately, biennial) convention providing reunion opportunities for members
- Support for one another in time of need.
