To the Esteemed TEC-ASBE Team,
My name is Joel Olubusayo, a 300-level student of Food Science at the University of Ilorin and the founder of The Peculiarly Peculiar Fashion Design Brand. I write this not just as a student or entrepreneur, but as a deeply grateful recipient of your generous support.
Thanks to the TEC-ASBE grant, I was able to acquire my very first sewing machine — a dream I had long nurtured but couldn’t achieve on my own. What may seem like a simple piece of equipment to some is, for me, a transformative gift — one that has redefined the future of my creative journey.
From Borrowing to Building
Before this opportunity, I had to constantly borrow sewing machines, hopping from place to place just to complete my work. This came with delays, stress, and limited creative control. Today, all that has changed.
Now, with my own high-quality sewing machine, I can confidently take charge of every stitch, every cut, and every design. This acquisition has:
- Improved the precision and quality of my garments
- Streamlined my production process
- Empowered me to explore more daring and innovative designs
- Laid a solid foundation for the growth and expansion of my brand
More Than a Machine
This sewing machine is more than just equipment. It is a symbol of belief — TEC-ASBE’s belief in the power of young, independent creatives like me. It is a vote of confidence in our potential, and it has fueled my desire to push boundaries and make my mark in the fashion industry.
A Heartfelt Thank You
I am sincerely grateful to TEC-ASBE for investing in individual entrepreneurs and supporting grassroots innovation. Your impact goes beyond the financial — you’ve helped restore confidence, encouraged dreams, and ignited hope.
With this support, I am committed to building The Peculiarly Peculiar Fashion Design Brand into a creative force that reflects the values of originality, precision, and purpose. I look forward to a future where this brand becomes not just a personal success, but a source of inspiration for others like me.
Thank you once again for believing in me.
