The Rotary Club of Accra East, with the support of the Rotary Club of Fort Collins in Colorado, has donated equipment to the students of the Carpentry Department of Aburi Presby Secondary Technical School at Aburi in the Eastern Region.
The equipment included power sanders, electric drills and saws, all amounting to GH¢18,000.
Making the presentation, the President of the club, Nii Afutu Neequaye, said the donation was the second to the school.
He said during the first donation, the club drilled a borehole to provide potable water for the students.
He added that the donation formed part of the club’s social responsibility, which was targeted at health and education this year.
Mr Neequaye advised the students to take their education seriously. He also asked the management of the school to make good use of the equipment.
The Assistant Headmistress of the school, Ms Joyce Addo, who received the equipment, expressed her gratitude to the club for the gesture.
She promised that the tools would be used for their intended purpose to enhance the performance of students in the Carpentry Department.
