On May 5, 2026, Dr. Ernest Ofori Sarpong turned his birthday celebration into a remarkable philanthropic initiative by commissioning a new dormitory at Presbyterian Boys’ Secondary School (PRESEC) Legon, Ghana. This facility will provide 600 ultra-modern beds for students, addressing long-standing accommodation challenges.
The event drew numerous dignitaries, including Haruna Iddrisu, the Minister for Education, alongside alumni and stakeholders from various sectors. The atmosphere was filled with gratitude and pride as attendees celebrated not just the new building but also the spirit of philanthropy and investment in education.
This newly commissioned dormitory aims to significantly improve accommodation conditions for students at PRESEC Legon. As many educational institutions in Ghana face infrastructure challenges, this project stands out as a vital contribution to student welfare.
Dr. Ofori Sarpong’s initiative highlights the importance of private-sector contributions to education in Ghana. The facility represents a substantial investment in the future of current and future generations of students.
During the ceremony, attendees sang the PRESEC anthem, reinforcing their school pride and commitment to educational excellence. The event showcased how collective efforts can lead to meaningful improvements in student life.
