Fidelity Bank donates GHC 20,000 to New Horizon Special School

Accra March 2, GNA – Fidelity Bank Ghana has reaffirmed its commitment to inclusion through a series of community interventions and support for selected individuals and institutions. 

The bank, in February, donated GHC 20,000 to support the New Horizon Special School at Dzorwulu in Accra, and shared boxes of chocolates with students and staff. 

“The visit marks over a decade of partnership between Fidelity Bank and New Horizon, reflecting a consistent investment in inclusive education and support for children living with special needs,” a release copied to Ghana News Agency said on Monday. 

Ms. Comfort Armoo, the Director of Customer Experience, noted the bank’s relationship with New Horizon, which was built on consistency and shared purpose, it said. 

“At Fidelity Bank, we believe that true customer experience extends to understanding the needs of our community and actively contributing to their well-being,” she was quoted as saying.  

“Visiting New Horizon every year, our goal is to make every member of our community feel seen, valued, and empowered.” “A decade of partnership with this school isn’t just a milestone; it reflects our core belief that inclusive banking must be matched by inclusive caring.” 

“The management of New Horizon Special School thanked the bank for the funding, emphasising it would help provide educational tools and therapies for students.” 

The Bank, the release said, also donated wheelchairs to four people living with physical disabilities, following an appeal from the Gbantana Community in Ada, Greater Accra Region.  

“The absence of mobility aids significantly limited the girls’ ability to attend school and participate fully in social life,” it said.  

“By providing the wheelchairs, the Bank directly addressed barriers to education and social inclusion, reinforcing its support for good health, quality education, and reduced inequalities.”  

On the same day, Fidelity Bank extended its outreach to the Accra Psychiatric Hospital, where chocolates were shared with patients and health attendants.  

In celebration of Ghana’s National Chocolate Day, it also distributed chocolates across its branches nationwide to appreciate customers and reinforce its identity as a proudly Ghanaian institution. 

“These moments are powerful reminders that corporate institutions have a role to play in strengthening social bonds,” it said.  

“Whether through sustained institutional support or small acts of kindness, we remain committed to strengthening social and traditional bonds.”
