The Automation Ghana Group Ltd has supported some students of the Batsonaa TMA Primary School with full educational scholarships, as part of the company’s Social Corporate Responsibility (CSR) project.

It is dubbed the PPA Future Leaders’ Educational Fund and has been established to cater for the educational needs of children who are brilliant, but needy. The aim is to provide these children with the needed support to help them through basic education.

At a short ceremony held at the company’s office on the Spintex Road, over 20 students were announced as beneficiaries of the scholarship.

This is the fourth successive year that The Automation Ghana Group is providing scholarships for pupils of the Batsonaa TMA Primary School, having started the initiative in 2015.

All beneficiaries will enjoy full scholarship throughout their basic school education.

Speaking at the event, CEO of The Automation Ghana Group, Engineer Kweku Asmah, said the company is excited to be contributing its quota to the development and education of the students.

He commended teachers for the sacrifices they are making to teach pupils, while calling on parents to nurture their wards to grow into responsible and hardworking men and women.

He added that the company will continue to financially support pupils in order to ensure that they are afforded the opportunity to be educated.

“We want to see that the children who will be sent to school are benefitting and are developing. So we are very happy and we will continue to support the school and the kids,” Mr. Asmah said to a crescendo of applauds.

According to him, everything is already in place and the projector will be presented to the school by the end of next week.
