The Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC), has said it is embarking on a mission to illuminate the lives of Ghanaians, particularly those in under-served communities.
With an unwavering commitment to improving livelihoods, the GNPC Foundation says it has set out to touch the lives of five million Ghanaians, promising a brighter future for the nation.
The Asokwa Municipality and Adansi Asokwa District are the latest in the Ashanti Region to experience the generosity of the national oil company.
GNPC Foundation takes pride in its dedication to the Ashanti Region, boasting 123 diverse projects funded by the nation’s oil resources since 2017. These projects include a six-unit classroom block at Kumasi High School, and a 12-seater sanitary facility at Atonso Bokro, all within the Asokwa Municipality.
Additionally, there’s a newly constructed three-unit classroom block in Dasubimadwen and a six-unit classroom block in Adansi Asokwa, both in the Adansi Asokwa District.
These structures were constructed in response to requests made to the GNPC Foundation, the corporate social responsibility arm of the corporation, dedicated to enhancing the well-being of all Ghanaians.
Dr Dominic Eduah said the foundation operates under three core focus areas – environment and social amenities, education and training, and economic empowerment.
He believes that improving the quality of life for Ghanaians is paramount, and it’s essential to ensure everyone benefits from the proceeds of the nation’s oil resources.
Dr Eduah highlighted the pivotal role of education in national development. He reiterates GNPC’s motto of “Impacting the Lives of Ghanaians” and assures that GNPC will continue to invest in Ghana’s people using oil revenue.
According to Dr Eduah, since 2017, the foundation has awarded scholarships to 7,800 students across the country. More than 300 students have received scholarships to study abroad, while 200 are currently pursuing their medical degrees in Cuba.
Benjamin Tawiah Twum, the Headmaster of Kumasi High School, expressed his heartfelt appreciation for GNPC’s intervention, acknowledging that it brings much-needed relief to the school.
He pledged to take good care of the newly constructed building and appealed for additional support, particularly in the form of computers.
As the GNPC Foundation says it will continue to light up the future for Ghanaian youth, the leadership said its mission goes beyond infrastructure. It’s about creating opportunities, nurturing talents, and ensuring every Ghanaian child has access to quality education, regardless of their geographical location.
With each project completed, GNPC says it will bring hope, education, and a brighter future to Ghana.
