As part of its Corporate Social Responsibilities to promote education, health and culture, Sasso has spent GH?250,000 cedis (2.5bn old cedis) on 100,000 exercise books for pupils and students nationwide.
Samara Company Limited, producers of Sasso Insecticide Spray and Coil, was one of the sponsors of the 2014 Ghana’s Most Beautiful contest. As part of the sponsorship package, the company decided to give each contestant a total of 10,000 branded exercise books to be distributed to pupils in their respective regions.
Since December last year, starting with the Brong Ahafo Region, all 10 regions of Ghana have received 10,000 branded exercise books with picture of their region’s representative in the 2014 Ghana’s Most Beautiful embossed on the books.
The 10 ladies are: Abigail Baciara Bentie, winner and Upper West rep; Solace Ewoenam Ekpedzor, Volta rep; Nana Ama Odame Okyere, Eastern rep; Carla Lamine Bongkoyire, upper East rep.
The rest are: Naa Achaawa Sackey, Greater Accra rep; Priscilla Abena Boatemaa Acheampong, Ashanti rep; Sophia BB Bondzie, Central rep; Nana Odeifuo Agyeiwaa, Western rep and Josphine Afia Asamoah, Brong Ahafo rep.
All 10 ladies together with their regions appreciated the kind gesture by Sasso.
Donation was also made to the Otumfour Education Foundation, in which 2,000 copies of the Ashanti regional books were presented together with cartons of Sasso Insecticide Spray and Coil and cash, to assist in the running of the foundation.
A similar gesture was extended to the Okyeman Environment Fund, set up by the Okyehene, Osagyefo Amoatia Ofori Panin. 2,000 copies of Eastern region exercise books, cash and cartons of Sasso Insecticide Spray were presented to support the operations of the foundation.
Samara Company Limited will, in the coming years, intensify its support in improving the standard of education in Ghana, with focus on basic education as the foundation.
