FirstBank Ghana Staff Raise GHS 400,000 to Support Rotary Club Projects

In a commendable demonstration of corporate social responsibility and community spirit, employees of FirstBank Ghana have raised GHS40,000 to support various Rotary Club initiatives in Ghana. With a robust presence of 29 branches and a wide-reaching network of agents providing services across 10 regions, FirstBank Ghana is well-known not only for its banking services but also for its significant contributions to societal well-being.

This year, FirstBank’s employees showed immense dedication by supporting the Rotary Club of Accra Ring Road Central’s annual fundraiser, “Walk for a Child.” This signature event, which brings together individuals and organizations for a common cause, is aimed at raising funds for community projects that have a lasting impact. The funds raised this year will be directed towards the completion of the Berekusu Community Clinic in the Eastern Region of Ghana—a crucial facility expected to provide much-needed healthcare services to the underserved population of Berekusu and its surrounding communities.

The initiative to support Rotary’s efforts was part of FirstBank Ghana’s broader goal to promote the voluntary spirit, leadership, and commitment to community impact among its employees. The voluntary contributions by employees across the bank’s branches, departments and units reflect a deeply ingrained culture of giving back to society.

Supporting Rotary Projects Nationwide

The “Walk for a Child” event, which saw a turnout from some FirstBank staff, culminated in the bank’s employees raising GHS 40,000 to support three key Rotary Club projects. Notably, the largest portion of the funds GHS 20,000 was donated to the Rotary Club of Accra Ring Road Central President, Albert Bahun-Wilson the principal organizer of the annual walk to complete a clinic the Club is constructing for the residents of Berekuso town in the Eastern region.

Additionally, FirstBank employees extended their generosity to two other clubs, both of which are led by the bank’s own staff members. GHS10,000 was donated to the Rotary E-Club of Ghana, whose president, Ama Amonoo Amevor, works with the Retail Products Team at FirstBank. Similarly, GHS10,000 was given to the Rotaract Club of Accra Ring Road Central, led by Lawrence Buhun-Wilson from the Corporate Banking department.
