The administrator of bmpUnited worked in Information Technology (IT) for over forty years, perhaps longer than his life-time role model Bill Gates. Just like Bill Gates, the industry was kind to this administrator, although not to the same level and extent. Regardless, it was important to him to follow in his role model’s footsteps in giving to others as much as he has received. According to a Nigerian fable, big dogs are expected to fetch big firewood, while smaller dogs fetch smaller firewood. That is how and why bmpUnited was created amidst the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
