Nollywood Actress Yvonne Nelson recently revealed in an interview her reasons for taking a break from acting, sharing her dedication to education and the establishment of her new school.
Yvonne recounted the challenges she faced, including selling her house and depleting her savings to fund the school. Despite the financial strain, Yvonne remains optimistic about the future and believes her school will produce future leaders.
The new institution, named Yvonne Nelson International School, aims to offer quality education and make a lasting impact on its students. Yvonne's commitment to her project has been the primary reason for her absence from the film industry lately.
Read the actress on words below:
Give me a preamble of this story:
“I stopped acting for a while to start my school because i believe so much in education. I had to sell my house and use up all my savings just to ensure the school runs smoothly.” ~ Yvonne Nelson talks about her new school in interview.
“Obviously, we’ve just started primary school and this is just phase one. We are going to continue and progress further. It is really crazy because, at a point, I am getting personal now. When we started the project, I had to sell my house because I went to the banks for a loan and the percentages were, look, it did not make sense.
“So, I had to fall back on a house and sold it. I had so many memories there, but I said to myself, Yvonne, this is the only way, so I sold the house, started the building, the money finished and I had to dip into my savings.
I pretty much emptied my entire savings for this school project so my heart is in it and i know we are going to go to lengths that will surprise us.
I know that alot of future leaders are going to come out of the school. Anytime you meet a kid and you’re so impressed by them, just ask them what school they are in and they are going to say Yvonne Nelson International school. Thank you.”
A big congratulations Yvonne!!!
