Consolidated Bank Ghana Limited (CBG) has donated over 700 Ghanaian-authored books to the Assorku Essaman Cluster of Schools in Takoradi.
This is part of the Bank’s flagship literacy campaign, “Formative Learning with CBG.”
The donation included storybooks and “My First Copy Books” from Book One to Book Three.
Dr. Naomi Worlali Kwetey, the Managing Director of Consolidated Bank Ghana LTD., led the donation and emphasised the Bank’s commitment to investing in early education and nurturing future leaders through reading.
She encouraged the pupils to fully utilise the books, viewing them as tools for empowerment in their future.
Dr. Kwetey reiterated, “We are not just donating books; we are investing in the dreams and futures of every child present.
“Every great dreamer started as a reader, and the knowledge you gain today will empower you to shape your future.”
She also expressed appreciation to the teachers, acknowledging their vital role as partners in shaping young minds and building a more empowered society.
Madam Rita Baidoo, the headmistress of the school, expressed gratitude to CBG, noting that the books would significantly impact the overall academic performance of the students.
Present at the event were the Deputy Managing Director of CBG, Madam Sheila Azuntaba, and the Head of Corporate Communications, Madam Mavis Frempong, who participated in classroom reading sessions with the pupils.
Dr. Naomi Worlali Kwetey also took the opportunity to visit CBG branches in the Western and Central regions to familiarise herself with the staff there.
Formative Learning with CBG is an initiative that targets schools in underserved communities, supporting CBG’s CSR strategy, which focuses on the pillars of education, health, and community development.
The books distributed under the programme are locally sourced from the Ghana Publishing Company and Afram Publications Limited, ensuring culturally relevant and age-appropriate content.
The initiative aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 4 – Quality Education, supporting the Bank’s role in fostering inclusive and equitable access to learning across Ghana.
