This initiative not only impacts the lives of young pupils but also teaches our service personnel the importance of giving back to society. I commend their sacrifice and urge the teachers and pupils to maintain this facility for generations to benefit,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Headmistress of Asuom M.A. Basic School, Madam Yaa Kusi-Ameyaa, expressed appreciation to CalBank and the 2024\/25 cohort: \u201cWe are deeply grateful for this invaluable support. This facility will go a long way in creating a conducive learning environment, and we assure you it will be well maintained and put to good use.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Delali Adiamah, Project Consultant and Contractor, also commended the initiative, noting his company\u2019s support for the effort.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRecognizing the sacrifice of the national service personnel, we waived most of our charges to support this noble cause. We are proud to have partnered with CalBank to bring this project to life\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n<p>CalBank has reiterated its commitment to championing sustainable community development projects, with education at the forefront of its corporate social investment agenda.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\"
