As part of its corporate social responsibility and commitment to the development of human capital, Stanbic Bank Ghana has made significant donations to three key institutions.
The total value of the donations exceeded GH¢500,000, reinforcing the bank’s belief that “Ghana is our home, we drive her growth.”
Speaking after the donation exercise, the Head of Personal Banking at Stanbic Bank, Harry Opoku Agyemang, said the bank places immense value on human development and sees it as a critical component of national growth.
“We’ve always believed that driving Ghana’s growth isn’t only about financing businesses or offering banking products. It’s also about investing in the people who make the system work,” Mr. Agyemang said.
Stanbic Bank’s philanthropic gesture included a donation of GH¢100,000 to Mawuli Senior High School by the 2000 Year Group to support the refurbishment of the White Block, a vital infrastructure on campus.

The bank donated 10 laptops, two 85-inch high-definition televisions, high-definition multi-purpose video cameras, and 20 tablets to the University of Health and Allied Sciences (UHAS)to enhance teaching and learning.
A cash donation of GH¢141,000 to Ghana Police Training School, aimed at supporting the training needs and capacity building of police personnel.
Mr. Agyemang explained that these donations reflect Stanbic Bank’s deeper mission to empower institutions and individuals.
“Whether it's health, security, or education, the end goal is the same build people who will build Ghana. This is the reason we do what we do,” he said.
He further highlighted that Stanbic Bank does not only provide financial assistance but also facilitates knowledge-sharing through initiatives such as the Financial Fitness Academy.
Through this program, bank staff train personnel from beneficiary institutions on financial literacy, responsible spending, and personal financial management.

“Many people earn good incomes but lack the skills to manage their money efficiently. Our Financial Fitness Academy is designed to change that,” he noted.
“We don’t go there to market our services. We go to educate and empower.”
The Vice-Chancellor of the University of Health and Allied Sciences, Prof. Lydia Aziato, expressed deep appreciation for Stanbic Bank’s support and used the opportunity to call on other private sector players to emulate the gesture.

She highlighted the university’s growing challenges, especially the lack of adequate hostel facilities to accommodate the increasing student population.
“We are grateful for the equipment and support provided by Stanbic Bank. However, we continue to face infrastructural challenges, particularly with student accommodation. We welcome private partnerships to help resolve these challenges and improve the quality of training we offer,” Prof. Aziato appealed.
