A generous donation was made to Opoku Ware Senior High School by the 74-year-old group of its alumni, as they presented a state-of-the-art generator worth $40,000 to their alma mater. The donation, aimed at enhancing the school’s power supply, was officially announced in an interview with Katakyie Kofi Nsiah Poku, a prominent member of the alumni group.
The generator, which is expected to provide reliable electricity to the school, will help mitigate power shortages and ensure that students can continue their studies uninterrupted. It will also support the school’s infrastructure, especially during times of power outages, making it an invaluable addition to the school’s resources.
Speaking to the media, Katakyie Kofi Nsiah Poku, the spokesperson for the alumni group, explained the rationale behind the significant contribution. He emphasized that the donation was born out of a deep sense of gratitude and commitment to supporting the school that had played a key role in shaping their futures.
“Our group, which comprises individuals who graduated many decades ago, recognizes the challenges that modern students face, and we believe it is important to give back to the institution that contributed to our growth,” Nsiah Poku said. “The generator will help ensure that the school continues to thrive academically, as power outages should not disrupt the learning process. This is just one of the many ways we plan to support the current and future students of Opoku Ware Senior High School.”
The donation marks an important milestone in the ongoing relationship between the alumni and their alma mater, demonstrating the continued bond of alumni to their school community. The 74-year-old group’s efforts reflect their shared commitment to education and the well-being of the next generation of students.
School officials expressed their immense gratitude for the generous gift. The headmaster of Opoku Ware Senior High School thanked the alumni group for their thoughtful contribution and assured them that the generator would be put to good use.
“This donation will go a long way in ensuring that our students have a conducive environment for learning,” said the headmaster. “We are extremely grateful for the alumni’s support, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with them to improve the school’s facilities.”
The 74-year-old alumni group’s donation is part of a broader trend of alumni giving back to their schools, helping to bridge the gap between current educational needs and resources. As the school continues to grow and adapt to new challenges, the support of alumni remains invaluable.
Opoku Ware Senior High School has long been recognized for its academic excellence and commitment to student development. The donation of the generator highlights the strong sense of community and solidarity among its alumni, ensuring that future generations of students will have the resources they need to succeed.
As this donation is just the beginning of their ongoing support, the alumni group plans to continue finding ways to contribute to the growth and development of Opoku Ware Senior High School, ensuring that it remains a top institution for years to come.
