The initiative, held on June 24, focused primarily on nursery and kindergarten pupils, who received a television set and educational books from the NGO. The donation is expected to boost enrollment at the foundational level by using educational cartoons and interactive content to make learning more engaging for young children.

“Children are naturally drawn to television,” said a representative of NGAP. “If they know they can learn through fun and colorful programs, it will make school an exciting place to be.”

While the donation targeted the younger learners, the event also included an insightful educational session for the Junior High School (JHS) students. Miss Aba Amissah , an NGAP team member, shared her personal story and led a frank discussion on Adolescent Reproductive Health and Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs). She emphasized the importance of making informed choices, with a strong message of abstinence and self-control, particularly directed at female students.

“You have a future to protect,” she told the students. “Don’t let teenage pregnancy rob you of your dreams. Focus on who you want to become.”

NGAP described the event as a resounding success, noting that the excitement and gratitude from the school community underscored the lasting impact such efforts can have.

“This is more than a donation—it’s an investment in the future of this community,” the organization stated.
