I write with great joy in my heart to announce to you that the Opassians in North America (US) have raised $10,000 (GHC15, 000) as their contribution towards the Opass 50th Anniversary Celebration.
We however suggest, and wish to persuade every Old student of Opass resident in the UK to contribute at least £20.00 for the Opass Golden Jubilee celebration. Anyone wishing to pay more than £20.00 is welcomed to do so, but the bench mark stands the same for anyone who wishes to make a meager contribution. However, in the interest of transparency, a payment list of those who make this contribution would be published weekly on our Email site.
Please contact any of the following persons (names stated) below to make your contributions:
Mr. Brako Asamoah (DK) 07506 518 785
Mr. Ohene Dokyi 07950 338 979
Ms. Edna Sakyi 07903 949 381
Sammy A. Bugyei 07946 076 283

Opass UK, I think it's high time we do things properly. I am very sure our mates in the US did not collect this huge sum within just a month. They started a long time ago. We always seem to be doing things on ad hoc basis. For instance if there's to be a meeting, we're just given a very short notice. By the time most of us get to hear about it, the meeting has already taken place.
Apart from sending messages via email and facebook, I think there should also be a compillation of phone numbers. So that text messages can be sent around.
It is my opinion that the submission of our donation to the school is delayed till somewhere next year, by which time we would have been able to collect an appreciable amount.
Please if u happen to see this message, and u have not thought of donating, please think again. This is our school. Please dig deep and also spread the word.
