“It is also intended to last generations so that the school can fall on to build and maintain infrastructural projects,” she added.
The endowment fund seeks to raise GHS 3 million and would be sourced from corporate entities, individuals and philanthropists.
Speech Day Committee Chair and member of HOPSA 2000, Akosua Fonwaa Affram told the media that it provides useful lessons to current and prospective students on their aspirations and expectations and the need to give back to their alma mater.
