Level 400 Public Relations students of the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA), today, November 9, 2026, demonstrated their commitment to social responsibility through a donation of essential sanitary supplies to the Office of the Dean of Student Affairs.
The initiative, undertaken by Level 400 Group 7, a subgroup of Public Relations Group 1, forms part of the students’ Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) academic project, aimed at translating classroom knowledge into practical interventions that benefit the university community.
The students presented a variety of cleaning and sanitary supplies to support sanitation and hygiene, particularly within the washrooms at the LBC Block. Items donated included handwashing detergents, cleaning detergents, washing powder, toilet rolls, waste bags, DOSA, and other essential cleaning materials.
Receiving the items on behalf of the Office of the Dean of Student Affairs, the Dean, Prof. Philomena Dadzie, warmly welcomed the students and commended them for taking the initiative to contribute to the well-being of the university community.
She encouraged the students to sustain such acts of service and challenged them to continue identifying opportunities to make meaningful contributions towards improving and upholding the standards of the university.
The initiative reflects the essence of Corporate Social Responsibility, which goes beyond theoretical understanding to creating tangible and positive change in society. By directing their efforts towards improving sanitation on campus, the students have demonstrated that social responsibility is not limited to corporate institutions but can also be driven by individuals and student groups.
The donation further reinforces the importance of collective responsibility in maintaining a clean, healthy and conducive learning environment, while highlighting the role of students as active contributors to the development of their university community.
