AquaBolg Foundation donates water tank to OLL Girls SHS

AquaBolg Foundation, the corporate social responsibility wing of AquaBolg Natural Mineral Water, producers of sachet water in the Upper East Region, and Anini Project, a non-governmental organization (NGO), have intervened to address the pressing water crisis at Our Lady of Lourdes Girls’ Senior High School in the Kassena-Nankana Municipality of the Upper East Region.

A1 Radio reporter, Moses Apiah, in a news report shed light on the dire situation of the school, telling how the lack of adequate water supply was making life uncomfortable for students and teachers. The report said personal hygiene routines, a fundamental aspect of student well-being, were being compromised due to the recurring water shortages.

The news report by the Journalist caught the attention of the AquaBolg Foundation, necessitating swift action to alleviate the students’ plight by donating a water storage tank.

Anini Project, which also intervened following the report, provided a handpump borehole to help address the water crisis in the school.

In her speech during the donation, the headmistress Madam Mary Amana, said the separate interventions were significant additions to the school infrastructure which would impact greatly on the lives of the students.

“With a reliable water storage solution now in place, the students can expect a more consistent and accessible water supply, enabling them to uphold essential hygiene practices without hindrance.”

Amana commended A1 Radio for projecting the challenges of the institution leading to the interventions.

“This NGO took a proactive approach by constructing a new borehole for the students, addressing the root cause of the water scarcity issue. It drilled a new borehole for us.”

The Programs Director for AquaBolg Foundation, Ebo Bruce Quansah who made the present, stressed that the organization was commitment to providing essential supports in the community.
