Best Assurance donates GH¢100,000 to GETFund to support education

Best Assurance Company Limited has contributed GH¢100,000 to the Ghana Education Trust Fund (GETFund) to aid the distribution of teaching and learning materials in underprivileged regions throughout Ghana. This donation is part of the insurance company's collaboration with GETFund under the Educational Financial Partnerships Initiative (EFPI).

The cheque was presented during a ceremony at the GETFund headquarters on September 2, 2026, by the Managing Director of Best Assurance, Robert Wugah, who presented the donation to GETFund Administrator Paul Adjei.

Wugah stated that the contribution aimed to support the acquisition of essential educational resources, such as textbooks, stationery, and other teaching and learning materials, to enhance classroom instruction. He praised GETFund for its efforts to tackle infrastructure and resource gaps within Ghana's educational system, emphasizing that the partnership demonstrated the company's dedication to advancing educational development.

Beyond the monetary gift, Wugah expressed Best Assurance's intention to establish a lasting relationship with GETFund. He proposed that the company would supply GETFund with corporate insurance coverage for areas like motor, fire, engineering, marine, bonds, and accidents to assist the Fund's institutional and logistical requirements.

Adjei expressed gratitude to Best Assurance for its donation and welcomed the company into the EFPI program. He indicated that the funds would aid in improving access to educational resources and contribute to better learning outcomes, particularly in underprivileged communities. Adjei also pledged GETFund's commitment to forging a sustainable and mutually advantageous partnership with the insurance company.

The collaboration underscores the significance of private-sector involvement in enhancing educational resources and outcomes in Ghana. Wugah was joined by the Deputy Managing Director of Operations, Kofi Lartey; the Deputy Managing Director in charge of Finance, Margaret Mutumina; and the Chief Distribution Officer, Kweku Arko.
