The 1988 year group of Ghana Senior High School (GHANASS) has presented five brand new dell desktop computers and accessories worth GH¢16,000.00 to its alma mater in Koforidua, the Eastern Regional capital.
According to the President of GHANASS Old Students Association, Mr E. Poku-Sarkodee, the world has now moved from manual to digital and computerised age and it was very crucial that the school, which nurtured them, also benefited from the group’s gains.
“Ghana Secondary School, now Ghana Senior High has brought us this far, therefore, it is our turn to also show our appreciation to the school and to showcase it to the world,” he said.
The leader of the 1988 year group, Madam Edith Quaye, on behalf of her colleagues, presented the items and said it was the group’s widow’s mite.
She said the donation was made possible through the contributions of the year group to assist its alma mater.
She pledged the 1988 year group’s support to the school and said the members would ensure the smooth completion of the new girls’ dormitory which is under construction at the moment.
Madam Quaye appealed to all GHANASS Old Students to join their respective year groups, attend meetings and also pay their dues to enable them assist the school.
The headmaster, Mr Jacob Afful, received the computers and appealed to other year groups to do same because they are the only people who can market their alma mater better.
