Usain Bolts, dubbed as the World's Fastest Runner, has donated all the gold medals he won at the just concluded Rio Olympics, to his former high school, William Knibb Memorial, Falmouth, Jamaica.
The donation was made to help save the school's athletic programs which were neglected because of financial crises.
The humble athlete has also promised to be paying a visit to the school once a month for the next year to motivate and train the students in athletics.
While addressing the Jamaica Press, Usain Bolt said:
''William Knibb played an integral role in the athlete that I am today so anytime they call, or anything I can do to give back, I am more than happy to oblige.''During his thanksgiving message to Usain Bolt, the School Head said:
''He sets records both on tracks and in humanitarian works.''
