The journey of IGAT Club from inception to impact
IGAT (I Got A Talent) Club was founded in 2018 by Mrs. Peris Bosibori Ongori with the vision of creating a platform where students could discover, develop, and showcase their talents beyond academic excellence.
Recognizing that society often focuses solely on academic achievement while overlooking the immense potential in various talents, IGAT Club was established to bridge this gap. Winston Churchill's observation that "the graves carry billionaires of all time because society never took time to identify talents among them" served as a key inspiration for the club's formation.
Today, the club has grown to become a vibrant community that identifies and nurtures talents.
