OmniBSIC Bank Ghana Limited has donated 20 computers to Prince of Peace International School in Accra as part of a partnership with the Rotary Club of Accra-Cantonments East aimed at expanding access to digital education, robotics training, and youth leadership development.
The donation, made during a ceremony at the school, also marked the commissioning of a Teacher in a Box digital learning and robotics station and the inauguration of the school's Interact Club, Rotary International's youth service programme.
The initiative forms part of OmniBSIC Bank's Corporate Social Responsibility agenda, which focuses on education, health and wellness, environment and talent development. The donated computers will support classroom instruction and serve as the hardware platform for the Teacher in a Box project, an offline digital learning system that provides access to thousands of educational resources without requiring internet connectivity. The facility will also support robotics education, helping students develop skills in coding, problem-solving and applied technology.
Representing OmniBSIC Bank at the event were George Tetteh Ocansey, Divisional Head, and Sylvester Apedoe, Group Head of IT. In his remarks on behalf of the Managing Director, Mr Daniel Asiedu, Mr Ocansey reaffirmed the institution's commitment to investing in education and digital skills development.
"This initiative is very important to us because it aligns with our commitment to education, youth empowerment and community development. In today's digital world, young people need the skills to innovate, think critically, and solve problems. We are pleased to donate these 20 computers to support teaching and learning, expand access to technology, and help prepare students for the future. We commend the Rotary Club of Cantonment East and the management of Prince of Peace International School for making this initiative possible," he said.
Mr Ocansey also congratulated the newly inaugurated Interact Club, noting that programmes that encourage service, leadership and integrity play an important role in shaping future generations. He described the donation as a strategic investment in education and the next generation of Ghanaian innovators.
"This partnership demonstrates what can be achieved when institutions work together to improve learning outcomes for young people. OmniBSIC remains committed to supporting initiatives that expand access to technology, strengthen digital skills and create opportunities for students to thrive. We see this as the beginning of a broader commitment to supporting schools and empowering young people with the skills they need to succeed in an increasingly digital world," he added.
