Posted

Our club together with Nanaimo Daybreak Rotary Club developed a grant proposal for the project. The district community grant application was approved by D5020 in the amount of US$3,500; this will be matched by contributions from the Mid Island Group, area clubs and the Techiman Rotary Club. The project will be administered by the Techiman club. The grant will fund construction of a well and installation of electricity for the St. Hubert's basic school in Akrofrom, a community about 70 km NE of Sunyani.
When the project is completed, it will give the children in St Hubert’s Basic School and the community access to clean drinking water as well as electricity. It should take six months to complete
The school was chosen because the community is expanding very quickly increasing the school population but the school lacks basic facilities like water and electricity. We therefore decided to use this grant to provide these basic facilities, to help improve their way of life thereby improving education and literacy.
