Officials of Fidelity Bank handing over keys to the renovated blocks to the headmaster of the school
Fidelity Bank Ghana has transformed the learning environment for students at Abbeykope D/A Basic School in the Ningo Prampram District.
Through its impactful “Orange Impact” initiative, the bank constructed a brand new 3-unit classroom block, renovated the existing 6-unit block and installed a rainwater harvesting system.
Built in 2006, the school had never undergone significant renovations. This, according to the headmaster, Enoch Anyingmor Teye, created challenges as enrollment grew.
Dreamjuly Foundation identified and referred the school to the Fidelity Bank Accra East Sector for consideration to be selected for the Fidelity Bank’s Orange Impact initiative.
The Bank did not only renovate the existing classrooms but also constructed three-unit classroom.
Speaking on behalf of Fidelity Bank’s Deputy Managing Director, Atta Yeboah Gyan, Director, Banking Operations, Simon Adu-Gyamfi stressed the bank’s commitment to educational equity.
“We were struck by the potential of the Abbeykorpe community, but also the challenges they faced,” he said. “Limited resources meant students at Abbeykorpe D/A Basic School didn’t have the same opportunities as others.”
He further added, “The new classrooms and renovations aim to bridge that gap and empower students to reach their full potential,” he added.
The school’s headmaster expressed his profound gratitude to Fidelity Bank, highlighting the project’s transformative potential.
“This facelift will not only improve student learning but also motivate teachers and encourage parents to keep their children in school,” he shared. He emphasized the lasting impact this will have, “This project will benefit generations to come.”
