ASA Savings and Loans has reaffirmed its commitment to supporting SDG-4, ‘Quality Education’ by handing over a renovated three-unit classroom block.
The team led by the Sustainability Manager of ASA; Richard Nartey underscored the company’s contribution towards improving the quality of education in schools.
He emphasized the importance of giving back to society and urged individuals and organizations to extend similar support to vulnerable schools not only in rural areas but also peri-urban communities that are densely populated.
The Area Manager of ASA, Mr. Samir Sani during the handing over of the renovated block to the school’s administration, disclosed that this forms part of the company’s social responsibilities, and that the school was carefully selected due to high enrolments and the existing pressure on the available infrastructure.
He added that the company will continue to support the school to improve on teaching and learning outcomes.
Madam Gifty Naana Addison, the Deputy Director in charge of Monitoring and Supervision of the Ga North Municipal Education Directorate, admonished the staff and
student body to keep the place tidy. She expressed gratitude to management of ASA for this timely intervention.
“As a municipality, our biggest challenge is classroom space for the pupils due to the growing numbers. In this entire community, this is the only government-run basic school with over 2,000 pupils. We know that this is not the last time management of ASA will come to our aid.” she added.
