Dr. Ofori Sarpong has donated a state-of-the-art facility to Presbyterian Boys' Senior High School (PRESEC), Legon. He is a distinguished alumnus and the current Board Chairman of the school. This donation represents a significant investment in the institution's future.
The new facility will directly help the government's efforts to offer more students good quality secondary education. It will improve student living spaces and reduce crowding in dormitories. This creates a better environment for all students to learn and grow.
This contribution fits into a larger trend of old students' associations becoming key partners in Ghana's education sector. The Ghana Education Service (GES) notes that these groups offer more than just buildings. They provide mentorship, scholarships, and help with how schools are run. This support helps schools offer a complete and competitive education. PRESEC has a history of strong alumni engagement, with various year groups undertaking significant projects.
"Alumni groups contribute not only to infrastructure development but also to mentorship, scholarships, and institutional governance," stated the Ghana Education Service in a Facebook post on May 7, 2026. The GES praised Dr. Sarpong's "exemplary gesture." They encouraged others to follow his lead in supporting education. Such partnerships are crucial for improving teaching and learning conditions across the country.
The donation is expected to have a positive long-term impact on the school. The school management has promised to ensure the facility is well-maintained. They will work with authorities to ensure its optimal use. This ensures the investment continues to benefit students for years to come. This initiative could encourage further private sector and alumni investment in Ghana's educational infrastructure.
