The Manufacturers of Supacem ce­ment, CBI Ghana Limited, has hand­ed over a borehole to the Koforidua Okorase community in the Eastern Region as part of their societal cor­porate social responsibility.

The Head of Marketing and Corporate Communication at CBI Ghana Ltd, Adeline Esi Suther­land, explained that the borehole project was undertaken in partner­ship with local distributor, Sammar Trading, to address area's long water challenge.

She said by providing a reliable source of clean water, Supacem was demonstrating its commitment to improving the quality of life in the communities where it operates. "As part of Supacem's commit­ment to corporate social responsi­bility, we partnered with our local distributor who identified a need within the community of Koforid­ua Okorase for sustainable access to clean water. "This borehole project aligns with our goal to make a positive, long-term impact on the communi­ties where we operate by providing a solution that will improve daily life and health," she explained.

The project, she said, exem­plified Supacem's dedication to sustainable development. "Just as we produce eco-friend­ly LC3 cement to reduce carbon emissions in the construction industry, we also aim to minimise environmental impacts in our CSR projects," Ms Sutherland added.
