GREL Donates 200 Dual Desks to 4 Schools at Agona Nkwanta

The Ghana RUBBER Estates Limited (GREL), has donated 200 dual desks to four schools within its area of operation. The donation was done on June 3, 2021 at Agona Nkwanta in the Ahanta West Municipal of the Western Region.

The Corporate Affairs Manager of GREL, Mr. Perry Acheampong, said that the company considered education as the main pillar to any development and so the promotion of education in the catchment area and beyond was paramount to GREL as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility. He said GREL had constructed many schools dotted across the areas to bring education closer to local people.

He said besides education, GREL has construct-ed health facilities and staff accommodation in some communities to help them have access to their health needs, adding “mechanized bore-holes with overhead poly tanks have been do-nated to some communities too”.

The chairman of the Association of Chiefs on whose lands GREL Operates (ACLANGO), Nana Kwesi Agyeman, who presented the desks to the schools bemoaned the attitude of the peo-ple towards GREL, adding they often com-plained that GREL was not doing well in the area in terms of projects.

He said GREL has built schools, community’s centres, drilled water for communities and built clinics among others in most communities to make life better for the people. Nana Agyeman on behalf of the beneficiary schools thanked GREL and asked the schools’ authority to ensure that furniture were well used to promote teaching and learning .
