The National Service Personnel Association of Ghana (NASPA) National Executives on Tuesday, 5th November donated some furniture to schools in the Mamprugu Moagduri District of the North East Region.

Mr. Twumasi during the presentation said, personnel of the association served their nation through various ways in districts across the country, it has become a norm to embark on such gestures to climax their exit from the scheme. His predecessors, he said had also embarked on similar benevolent gestures which had impact in the lives of people in need and the country at large. This gesture is to support education in Ghana and the SDG 4 which talks about quality education.
“This gesture is to demonstrate our commitment not only to the 1-year mandatory service to the nation but to go the extra mile of providing the needed logistics to enhance teaching and learning activities as well as other social amenities in certain rural areas,” he said.
The Deputy District Education Director, Mr. Mummuni Mbonwura Francis who received the furniture on behalf of the schools expressed his profound gratitude the NASPA executives and thanked them for considering the district.
He said due to the geographical location of the district, it is being deprived of certain social amenities and they can only fall on benevolent individuals and groups.

The National Executives of NASPA are expected to embark on similar furniture donations in the Bono Region, Ashanti and Eastern Region before the end of the week.
