Bulk Energy Storage and Transportation Limited (BOST) has distributed over 11,000 exercise books and supplementary reading materials to six basic schools in Akosombo, and Asuogyaman Schools in the Eastern Region.
The beneficiary schools include Atimpoku RC Basic School and Atimpoku L/A Junior High School, among others.
This initiative is part of BOST’s SCR nationwide educational support programme targeting communities impacted by its operations, with a total of 100,000 learning materials planned for distribution.
The programme also aligns with the company’s Sustainable Development Goal 4, which aims to promote equitable and quality education.
BOST has offered a scholarship worth GH₵1.5 million to 50 students at the University of Mines and Technology (UMaT), covering tuition, laptops, stipends, and other support.
Mr. Yaw Dadzie, the Manager in charge of CSR who presented the learning materials on behalf of the Managing Director, Dr. Edwin Provençal, disclosed that the company is also offering environmental sustainability measures through tree planting to reduce its carbon footprint.
In a brief remark after the donation, head teachers of the beneficiary schools observed that teaching and learning go with assessment but said a key challenge among schools in the catchment area is that some of the pupils lack exercise books.
