Karpowership Provides ICT Lab For Manhean Anglican JHS

Karpowership Ghana Limited has presented a fully furnished ultramodern computer laboratory to Manhean Anglican JHS in Tema.

The computer laboratory comprises 31 computer sets, 31 desks and other equipment.

Prior to this, the school had no computers and students had to be transported to near-by schools for practical Information Communication Technology (ICT) lessons.

Speaking at the inauguration of the computer lab, Volkan Buyukbicer, Country Manager of Karpowership Ghana, said the donation was in line with Karpowership's Corporate Social Responsibility to support education and improve literacy in communities which they operate.

He said, “The speedy growth in technology has made acquiring knowledge in the sector very necessary in our day-to-day lives. It has become very important for every individual to be up-to-date in the use of computers, and this is seen in the inclusion of ICT in the curricula of every school. That is why we embraced the opportunity to attend to this important need of Manhean Anglican JHS.”

Marian Cobblah, Headmistress of Manhean Anglican JHS, expressed gratitude to Karpowership for the gesture.

“This donation is sure to boost students' concentration in class and enhance teachers' efficiency in the teaching of ICT. We are very delighted to have benefited from this initiative,” she said.

Isaac Ashai Odamtten, Chief Executive of the Tema Metropolitan Assembly (TMA), also lauded Karpowership for supporting education in the community and called for long-term relationship with the company.

He said, “The record Karpowership has set in adopting this computer lab is going to have far-reaching benefits.”

Last month, the company donated learning materials which included back packs, stationery and other learning materials to 2,000 students at the Manhean Anglican Cluster of Schools.

They also presented one-year bursary to 100 needy but brilliant students at Manhean Presbyterian Primary School and Manhean TMA Primary and JHS.
