The Management of Citi FM, through the Citi FM Foundation, has today, Tuesday, September 28, 2021, commissioned a 30-bed girls’ dormitory for the Baptist School Complex and Orphanage (BASCO) at Trotor near Suhum in the Eastern Region.

The 30-bed capacity project is in fulfillment of the station’s commitment to ensure the admission of more orphaned girls, who cannot be accepted into the institution due to the lack of space.

A ground-breaking ceremony was held on Monday, April 26, 2021, for the construction of the project.

Mr. Kojo Akoto Boateng, the Project Coordinator, explained why the building wasn’t completed in three months as promised, but rather five months.

“I feel excited that our listeners and the company and our partners came together to help us do this. I remember when we came for the Easter Orphan project, that was when they said they needed the place and Mr. Samuel Attah-Mensah and the management said let’s build it. And through a lot of rains, we have been able to get it done in about five months because we said we were going to do it in three months which was quite a challenge, but we have been able to do it.”

The team was led by the Programmes Manager, Jessica Opare Saforo, Head of TV, Richard Mensah, Kafui Kuwornoo, Coordinator for the Citi FM Foundation, and others for the commissioning of the project.

About the project

BASCO is a private school complex and is also home to about 80 orphaned children, of which the majority are boys.

Over the years, the Citi FM Foundation has supported the orphanage with cash donations, stationery, food items, toiletries, and other domestic items collected from the station’s listeners and viewers, who make generous contributions towards the project.
