The projects are expected to be completed within 12 months.

The Club as a humanitarian institution is committed to help improve sanitation and access to potable water which features prominently in its seven (7) focus areas.

According to Nana Effah Mensah, “the group will continue to help the less privileged in the society. That is why, we want to construct an additional 206 micro flush toilets and 30 boreholes by mid- April 2023 at Afram plains and Bosomtwe district ".

Meanwhile, Dr. Emmanuel Obeng, President of Rotary club of Kumasi said “the decision to construct a borehole for the Adventist SHS, Bantama stems from an appeal by some old students who were concerned about the difficulties the students face in accessing potable drinking water”.

The Rotary Club of Kumasi, in fulfilment of its vision to promote goodwill and prevent water borne diseases, has decided to construct toilets and boreholes across the country.
