ACN CELEBRATES ₦50 Million MILESTONE ON JOURNEY TO a LASTING LEGACY
Every enduring institution begins with a shared vision and becomes reality through collective commitment.
For the Aviary Club of Nigeria, the proposed ₦300 million Permanent Civic Centre represents a noble aspiration founded on unity, service and the desire to secure a lasting home for the brotherhood. More than a physical structure, this Centre will serve as a Hub of Excellence for networking, professional development, fellowship and social cohesion. It will reflect the permanence, prestige and identity of the Club while creating a lasting legacy for generations to come.
A MILESTONE WORTH CELEBRATING;
Through the combined efforts of the Fundraising Committee, Provincial Councils, Grand Councils, members and supporters, the project has recorded a total inflow of ₦50.034 million, representing 16.7% of the ₦300 million target.
Reaching the first ₦50 million demonstrates that this vision is steadily becoming a reality.
Congratulations to everyone who has donated, redeemed a pledge, mobilised others, shared campaign materials or supported the project in any way. Every contribution has moved the Club closer to its goal.
THE STRENGTH OF COLLECTIVE COMMITMENT:
Each Aviary was encouraged to contribute at least ₦1 million towards the project and so far, ₦28.4 million, representing 63.11% of the expected ₦45 million, has been received from Aviaries globally.
Twenty-four Aviaries have fully paid their minimum contributions.

These encouraging results provide a strong foundation for the next phase of the campaign.
MAKING A DIFFERENCE WITH INDIVIDUAL GENEROSITY:
Individual donations currently stands at ₦21.63 million, including ₦3.85 million raised through the Lone star aviary Tour Bus fundraising initiative.
This creative effort shows how innovative fundraising can accelerate progress towards the target. In addition, 39 individuals have pledged ₦31.7 million. Of this amount, ₦11.74 million has been received, leaving an outstanding balance of ₦19.96 million.
Redeeming these pledges would provide a significant boost to the project.
SALUTING THE FUNDRAISING COMMITTEE:
The ₦50 million milestone also reflects the dedication of the ACN Permanent Site Project Fundraising Committee.
Through sustained coordination, communication, follow-up and mobilisation, the Committee has kept the campaign active and the vision firmly in focus. Its efforts, supported by Provincial Councils, Grand Councils and individual deserve special recognition and appreciation.
THE JOURNEY CONTINUES:
While reaching ₦50 million messages is worth celebrating, approximately ₦250 million remains to be achieved to meet the overall target.
This is the time to build on the momentum already created.
Aviaries yet to commence payment are encouraged to do so, while those that have made part payments should complete their contributions.
Members with outstanding pledges are also urged to redeem them and those who have already donated can continue to help by sharing the campaign, mobilising their networks and supporting creative fundraising initiatives.
No contribution is too small and every donation brings the Club closer to establishing its permanent home.
BE A PART OF THIS NOBLE LEGACY:
The Permanent Civic Centre offers every member and supporter an opportunity to contribute to something that will endure beyond the present generation, it will stand as evidence of what unity, service and shared purpose can accomplish.
Join the effort. Redeem your pledge.
