FR. GIL EDUATION CENTER
Students in Nigeria are equipped with school supplies so that they can receive an education.
This school located in a small village in Nigeria was named in honor of Reverend Gilbert Wilkes, who was the rector of Christ Church Anglican when the need to start a school came to light.

More than 10 years later, this school continues to provide an education to the children with supplies and funds donated by CCA
