Empowering Students, Transforming Communities: Serasa Foundation Officially Launched with Maiden Annual Educational Awards Program 2025

History was made in Agona Odoben as Serasa Foundation was officially launched, alongside the maiden edition of its Annual Educational Awards Program. The event, which brought together educators, stakeholders, traditional leaders, parents, and students, carried the inspiring theme “Empowering Students, Transforming Communities.”

Its mission is to empower young people to pursue higher education, while its vision is to see every child, regardless of circumstance, equipped to make a positive impact on their community and the world. The Foundation promotes academic excellence, structured mentorship, access to resources and encouragement for students to further their education and careers.

The second was part of the event was the Annual Educational Awards Program 2025, which celebrated Junior High School graduates who excelled in the 2024 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE). Together, these two milestones highlighted the Foundation’s mission to mentor, guide and provide supports for young people to shape a brighter future.

The Annual Educational Awards Program celebrates the hard work and resilience of Junior High School students in Agona Odoben. In its maiden edition, twelve schools took part, with outstanding students rewarded with certificates, medals and cash prizes, and an inspiring moment of pride for the entire community.

Aside from awarding individual best students from the twelve schools, the Best Overall Male Student award went to Julius Appoh Krampah of Uncle Sam Academy JHS, who achieved an aggregate of 17 in the BECE. He received a medal, a certificate, and a cash prize of GH₵2,000. The prize money was presented as a support fund to aid his continued education, a gesture that reinforced the Foundation’s commitment to empowering young learners. Julius’s achievement served as a strong reminder that consistency, discipline, and courage can open doors to brighter opportunities.

Julius Appoh Krampah – Best Overall Male Student

In the same spirit, Dorothy Sam, also of Uncle Sam Academy JHS, emerged as the Best Overall Female Student with an outstanding aggregate of 14. She was honored with a medal, a certificate, and a cash prize of GH₵2,500, equally designated as educational support to help her pursue her academic journey. Dorothy, who dreams of becoming a nurse, expressed her passion for Home Economics and her love for Mathematics. “I want to encourage my fellow students to stay focused, believe in themselves, and never give up on their dreams,” she shared, inspiring her peers with both her words and accomplishments.

Speaking at the event, Mr. Arthur Michael, Program Manager for the Serasa Foundation, applauded the students and highlighted the importance of education in community transformation. “At Serasa Foundation, we believe that education is the bedrock of transformation. These awards are not just prizes; they are investments in the future of our young people, who will one day lead and change their communities,” he said.

As keynote speaker and chairperson, Mr. Seth Emmanuel Panwum, District Director of Education for the Asikuma Odoben Brakwa, also praised the initiative and reminded students to remain disciplined and focused.

“Any activity geared towards empowering students, young ones and their studies, we as educators are always pleased to be part of them,” he noted.

In addition, Mr. Ebenezer Kodwo Nyarkoh, the District Examination Coordinator, stressed the importance of making education accessible to all children in the community. He said, “Education must be accessible to empower the youths. Every child, regardless of its background, deserves a fair chance to learn, grow and succeed. That is why I fully support the Serasa Foundation and its vision.”

Speaking on the role of child and youth development, Mr. Christain Kofi Duah, Project Director of the New Faith Baptist Child and Youth Development Centre, reminded us that education must go beyond academics. Through mentorship, life skills and values, students can discover their voice, build courage and inspire change in their communities. “Every child holds the seed of transformation but it takes nurturing to help them grow into leaders”.

Behind the scenes, the successful organization of the event was made possible through the leadership and teamwork of the Serasa Foundation’s executive team, working hand in hand with the wider community. Mr. Arthur Michael, Programs Manager of the Foundation, supported by Amina Akua Boahemaa, Protocol Lead, Jackline Odei, Secretary and Mr. Kobina Atta, Operations Lead, spearheaded the planning.

Their combined effort ensured that the event was not only well structured but also inspiring for all who attended.

The strong collaboration of headmasters from the participating schools also played a vital role in the success of the program. Their presence and support reflected the shared commitment to raising the standard of education in Agona Odoben and creating opportunities for young learners. Together, the Foundation’s executives and the school leaders set an example of unity and community spirit, which lies at the heart of the Serasa Foundation’s vision.

Serasa Foundation Executive and Awards Planning Committe Members

At its core, Serasa Foundation is committed to inspiring and empowering young persons to pursue higher education. The Foundation envisions a future where every child, regardless of background or circumstance, has access to the resources, mentorship and guidance needed to succeed. It is built on the belief that education is the foundation of transformation, and that supporting students today will ultimately create stronger communities tomorrow.
