Singer Jay Ghartey To Build Schools
Jay Ghartey at Nima
School
Renowned musician
Kweku Gyasi Ghartey, otherwise called Jay Ghartey, has reaffirmed his commitment
to education with a promise to set up more charity schools across the
country.
The US-born Ghanaian
music sensation has announced his intention to build two such schools in Winneba
and Cape Coast – which he describes as his ancestral
hometowns.
The ‘My Lady’
hit-maker announced this in Accra shortly after inspecting his new charity
school at Nima, last week.
The school,
constructed by Jay and his brother, Joe Ghartey, as a project under their GH
Brothers Youth Foundation, currently caters for over 150 pupils from the
elementary to the adult level.
The pupils, many of
whom hope to return to the proper school system, have now taken to the
opportunity provided by the school to build their future.
In an interview on
Monday, Jay Ghartey hinted that he would set up two additional schools in
Winneba and Cape Coast, all in the Central Region.
“These are my
ancestral towns and as the saying goes, ‘charity begins at home,’ my next
planned schools are going there,” he announced, adding that he intended to build
more of such schools across the country.
Touching on his visit
to the Nima charity school, Jay Ghartey shared a profound delight upon meeting
and interacting with the pupils, who promised to take their studies seriously in
order to realise their aspirations.
He said: “I had a
great visit with the children. This has always been a dream of me and my brother
to have schools that help the youth of Ghana.
“There are so many
geniuses who need to be encouraged and sometimes encouragement and an academic
environment is all a child needs to blossom into a responsible citizen,” he
added.
