Ghanaian beneficiaries of the 2017\/2018 Chevening scholarship took the\u00a0Citi Opportunity Project on Education (COPE) closer to its GHc250,000 with a GHc 1,700 donation.<\/p>\n

Citi FM is raising the amount for the foundation to support the tertiary education of 50 beneficiaries.<\/p>\n

The average amount spent on each beneficiary is roughly GH\u00a25,000, and this is to cover tuition, accommodation, stationery and stipend.<\/p>\n

Representing the Chevening scholars, Emmanuel Akaadom, underscored the importance of supporting persons “who are very brilliant but in need of financial support to continue their education.”<\/p>\n

Chevening is the UK government\u2019s global scholarship programme that provides beneficiaries with an all-expense paid scholarship to enable participants to achieve their professional goals, and Mr. Akaadom noted that his colleagues could also, in turn, help others in need to inch closer to their life goals.<\/p>\n

“As Chevening scholars, we also feel privileged and favoured after being given\u00a0a scholarship by the UK government to go study outside\u2026 we also saw the need to support out brethren here so they can also go high to achieve what they want to achieve in life,” he said after presenting the donation.<\/p>\n

COPE is a\u00a0Corporate Social Responsibility initiative\u00a0programme\u00a0under the Citi Foundation for Ghanaians in need of support for education purposes.<\/p>\n

Between 2014 and 2016, the project\u00a0expended\u00a0an average of about GHc 5,000 per academic year on one beneficiary.<\/p>\n

Through donor support, COPE has managed to cater for 22 students.<\/p>\n
