At the inauguration on Tuesday, the organisation in collaboration with management of Barclays Bank (Ghana), Ministerial Development and Relief Programme of Canada, Kwahu Tafo Union of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and Kwahu Tafo Development Council (KTDC) donated some educational materials to help to reduce literacy in the area.
They included textbooks, exercise books, 200 school uniforms for needy pupils and students, a photocopier, computer and its accessories, a scanner, a television set and a DVD player.
The items were presented to 14 pre-basic schools, senior high schools and the community library.
