De Mayor Foundation Marks Anniversary With School Donations

Date:

 

De Mayor Foundation is one and as part of the first anniversary celebration, the Foundation reaffirmed its commitment to education and community development by donating educational materials and essential school supplies to selected schools within the South Tongu District of the Volta Region on 2 July 2026.

The beneficiary schools were Dalive–Torsikpota LA Primary School, Agorta JHS, and Nutekpor LA Primary School.

During the outreach, the Foundation donated bundles of exercise books and notebooks, sets of mathematical instruments, packs of assorted drinks for school activities, boxes of pens, pencils, erasers, sharpeners, and boxes of chalk. These items were presented to support teaching and learning, ease the burden on parents, and provide pupils with the basic learning materials needed to excel academically. The Foundation believes that every child deserves access to quality educational resources regardless of their background.

As part of the anniversary activities, DE MAYOR FOUNDATION also pledged to supply chippings to the Dalive–Torsikpota community to improve the poor, waterlogged grounds left exposed by recent floods. The intervention is expected to enhance movement within the community, improve safety, and create a better environment for residents. Read Also: EXIM Bank Deepens Commitment to Sustainable Finance

Additionally, the authorities of Agorta JHS appealed to the Foundation for roofing sheets to replace the school’s leaking roof. According to the school, rainfall causes water to pour into the classrooms, disrupting lessons and making teaching and learning difficult. The Foundation acknowledged the request and expressed its commitment to exploring ways of mobilising resources and partnerships to address the challenge.

As DE MAYOR FOUNDATION celebrates one year of service, it extends its heartfelt appreciation to everyone who has supported its vision and activities over the past year. The Foundation remains committed to collaborating with individuals, corporate organisations, philanthropists, and development partners to expand its impact and improve the lives of children and communities. http://www.ghanaweb.com

Education is a shared responsibility, and every act of kindness has the power to transform lives. Together, we can build stronger schools, empowered communities, and a brighter future for every child.
