OmniBSIC Bank Ghana Limited has donated 20 computers to Prince of Peace International School in Accra to expand access to digital education, robotics training and youth leadership development.
The donation, made in partnership with the Rotary Club of Accra-Cantonment East, was presented during a ceremony that also saw the commissioning of a Teacher in a Box (TIB) digital learning and robotics station and the inauguration of the school’s Interact Club.
The initiative falls under OmniBSIC Bank’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) agenda focused on education, health and wellness, environment and talent development.
The 20 computers will be used for classroom instruction and will serve as the hardware platform for the “Teacher in a Box” project.
The TIB is an offline digital learning system that gives students access to thousands of educational resources without internet connectivity. The new station will also support robotics education, equipping students with skills in coding, problem-solving and applied technology.
Representing the Bank at the event were George Tetteh Ocansey, Divisional Head, and Sylvester Apedoe, Group Head of IT.
Speaking on behalf of Managing Director, Daniel Asiedu, Mr. Ocansey said the donation aligns with OmniBSIC’s commitment to youth empowerment and community development.
“This initiative is very important to us because it aligns with our commitment to education, youth empowerment and community development,” he said. “In today’s digital world, young people need the skills to innovate, think critically, and solve problems. We are pleased to donate these 20 computers to support teaching and learning, expand access to technology, and help prepare students for the future.”
Mr. Ocansey commended the Rotary Club of Accra-Cantonment East and the management of Prince of Peace International School for driving the project.

He also congratulated the newly inaugurated Interact Club, Rotary International’s youth service programme, noting that programmes that promote service, leadership and integrity are critical in shaping future generations.
He described the donation as a strategic investment in the next generation of Ghanaian innovators.
“This partnership demonstrates what can be achieved when institutions work together to improve learning outcomes for young people,” he added. “OmniBSIC remains committed to supporting initiatives that expand access to technology, strengthen digital skills and create opportunities for students to thrive.”
According to the Bank, the project marks the beginning of a broader commitment to support schools across the country and equip young people with skills needed to succeed in an increasingly digital economy.
School authorities and Rotary officials welcomed the support, saying the computers and TIB station will help bridge the digital divide and prepare students for 21st-century jobs.
