Presenting the cheque in Accra, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Founder of Blavo and Co Solicitors, Mr John Blavo, said the gesture was to consolidate the relationship between the school and the organisation.
“This is a way of giving back to our community as Ghanaians to help develop the social capital of the country,” he explained.
