Safety Insurance Supports Princess Hatiyya Foundation

Safety Insurance Brokers, an Accra-based insurance brokerage firm, has presented a cheque for GH¢2,000 to the Princess Umul Hatiyya Foundation to support its efforts at providing classroom blocks for deprived schools across Africa.

The non-profit foundation which is focused on the development of the human potential through education, has a project dubbed ‘First Class Africa’ under which it wants to build one classroom at a time across many deprived communities in Africa.

The Chief Executive Officer of Safety Insurance, Mrs Lena Adu Kofi, who presented the cheque in Accra said the donation was part of the insurance broker’s commitment to give every needy child a fair chance to contribute to Ghana’s development.

Since its inception 11 years ago, Safety Insurance has been committed to giving the underprivileged the opportunity to unleash their full potential by supporting charitable organisations and offering free training programmes to senior high school students awaiting entry into the university.

“Safety Insurance believes in giving every needy child the opportunity to contribute to Ghana’s development, and hopes that one day all children in Ghana will have the opportunity to attain first-rate education,” Mrs Kofi stated.

The Chief Executive of the foundation, Princess Umul Hatiyya Ibrahim Mahama, expressed gratitude to Safety Insurance Brokers for its consistent support to the foundation’s work over the past three years.

She explained that the donation would be used to provide books for Guunayili Primary School in the Northern Region.

Ms Mahama called on other organisations to support the foundation in its pursuit of building a ‘First Class Africa’ through education, which the foundation believes “is the bedrock of any productive society.”

Last year, the Foundation presented lap desks to the Yale Primary School and Gbani Gabri Primary in the Talensi Nabdam District of the Upper East Region.
