Cargill Ghana has renovated the girls’ dormitory at the State School for the Deaf in Adjei Kodjo, delivering a safer and more comfortable space for students.
The refurbished facility is set to be officially handed over on Wednesday, September 24.
The project forms part of the company’s broader community development agenda, with a focus on inclusive education and improved infrastructure.
The upgraded dormitory is expected to enhance both the wellbeing and academic performance of the students.
“At Cargill, we believe every child deserves a supportive environment to learn and thrive,” said Max Essoh Latte, Managing Director of Cargill Ghana.
“Through this project, we are not only providing a safe home for the students but also reaffirming our long-term commitment to empowering communities through education.”
School authorities and local leaders have commended the initiative, describing it as a timely intervention that demonstrates Cargill’s sustained investment in Ghana’s educational sector.
