On 14th, June, Tbay went to the Ando Tsiyinu D/A Basic School, located in Tsiyinu, Ghana (in the South Danyi in the Volta Region), this humble educational institution started with a mere 11 students and two dedicated teachers. Over the years, it has grown into a vital center of learning for the community's 500 inhabitants and currently the school has a population of 47 pupils, a classroom blocks from Basic 1-7 and is challenged with Junior High School classroom block. However, the lack of educational resources has hindered effective teaching and learning. Recognizing this need, Tbay staff selected this school as the station for donation this time, aimed at uplifting the education system in the region.
We selected 47 students from Grade 1-6. The donation items included essential school supplies like exercise books, pencils, pens, erasers, sharpeners, and crayons. Additionally, practical items such as drinking water bottles, footballs, veronica buckets, wall clocks, sanitary pads, school bags, lunch boxes, soft drinks, biscuits, dustbins, tissue paper, sanitizers, liquid soap, and toilet rolls were also provided.
The donation event commenced with a meeting between the school administration, community leaders, and the Tbay team. The day began with an opening prayer led by Elder Aki Sampson, then followed by a warm welcome address from the headmaster, Mr. Daniel K. Gafli. He expressed his gratitude towards Tbay for their invaluable contribution to the school.
Mr. Mawulorm Torku, representing Tbay staff, then delivered a heartfelt speech, outlining our mission to donate to 1000 schools in deprived areas across Africa. Ando Tsiyinu D/A Basic School became the second beneficiary of Tbay's generosity in Ghana.
Throughout the event, we organized a color cross game with delightful and interactive experience for students, some community inhabitants were also eagerly waiting to participate. We gave students some paper cards with different alphabets, including the word Tbay, each of them had choices to pick up their favorite colors to fill in the cards.
Then we had a heartwarming interaction with students for showing love and kindness. We prepared some images with different symbols which represented different kind interactions, such as a hug or a high five clap. Students were felt free to choose the images and corresponding interactions they wanted. If you’re interested, please click the video to watch:

Gafli expressed his gratitude for Tbay’s donation, then one student Belinda said, “We are excited Tbay is here to help us. God bless them so much. We want Tbay to help us with mathematical set, teaching and learning material.”
And another teacher Madam Yayra Tarquah said, “I thank the all mighty god for giving us life and for we having great moments like this. I again thank the Tbay, sponsors, and every individual for coming in to the aid of our students to help them. God will continue to bless them and may God replace everything they spent on our students.’’
The donation event at Ando Tsiyinu D/A Basic School was a true testament to the power of collective efforts in improving education in underprivileged areas. Tbay commitment to empowering schools in Africa has paved the way for a brighter future for these young minds. As we witness the smiles and gratitude of the students, we are reminded of the significant impact that even the smallest acts of generosity can have on transforming lives and communities.
