Adigasa Foundation, a charitable organization dedicated to empowering underprivileged communities, has made a significant donation to four schools in the Pungu township under the Navrongo District.
The donation, which took place on February 28, 2025, benefited students and teachers of Wusungu Primary and Junior High School, as well as Nyangua Primary and Junior High School.
The foundation donated essential educational materials and other supplies to enhance learning conditions for students. Items presented included 40 yards of school uniforms, 400 school bags, 400 erasers, 100 pencils, 2,880 sanitary pads, 480 textbooks, 300 exercise books, 200 sharpeners, 150 pens, 20 bags of water, and 20 crates of soft drinks. The total number of students and teachers who benefited from this intervention is approximately 175.
Speaking at the event, the Executive Director of the Adigasa Foundation, Mr. Carl Asagida, emphasized the foundation’s commitment to bridging the gap in social inequality through sustainable development initiatives.
“Education is the foundation of every progressive society, yet many children in underserved communities lack access to even the most basic school supplies. Through this donation, we hope to not only ease the burden on these students and their families but also inspire them to strive for excellence in their education,” Mr. Asagida stated.
He further highlighted the foundation’s focus on improving the livelihoods of vulnerable groups by providing support in healthcare, education, economic empowerment, and humanitarian aid.
“We believe that every child, regardless of their background or economic situation, deserves an equal opportunity to succeed. This is just the beginning of our journey to impact lives and create a better future for the next generation. We will continue to extend our support to other communities in need,” he added.
Teachers and students at the beneficiary schools expressed their gratitude for the generous gesture. A teacher from Nyangua Junior High School, Madam Abigail Atanga, described the donation as a timely intervention.
“Many of our students struggle to afford basic learning materials. With these supplies, we believe teaching and learning will be much easier, and our students will be more motivated to stay in school,” she said.
The Adigasa Foundation, founded in 2023, has been at the forefront of charitable efforts to support underprivileged communities across Ghana. The organization has undertaken various initiatives in health, education, poverty alleviation, and community development.
Mr. Asagida assured that this donation is just one of many to come as the foundation continues its mission of providing hope and equal opportunities to the less privileged. He encouraged other organizations and individuals to support similar causes to uplift communities and foster sustainable development.
