The St Roses Senior High School, an all-female second-cycle high school in Akwatia in the Eastern Region of Ghana will be the first school to host the new season seven of the Vim National Schools Sanitation Programme

Founded in1965, with a student population of over 1,000, with White and Blue as their colours, St Roses is set to start the programme on a high note to warn other schools and students on the coronavirus pandemic, which has caused everyone to be health and safety conscious.

Mr. Emmanuel Olla Williams, CEO of One  - On - One Foundation, organisers of the programme said this year is going to be different but more effective.

He commended Unilever Ghana for the commitment and trust in them to deliver and save Ghanaian youth and students.

He thanked Unilever Ghana Ltd for supporting with their Vim All purpose Cleaner which was used to Scrub all Spirogyra off, Rexona to shy away body odour and Key Brillant Soap to wash their clothes, bedsheets and Nose Masks.

He hinted that many schools are going to benefit, and those schools who have not yet been reached to exercise patience as the Sanitation Train will make a stop over.

The Vim National Schools’ Sanitation Inspection Tour by One-on-One Foundation in collaboration with Unilever Ghana Limited, producers of Vim All purpose Cleaner, Rexona and Key Brillant Soap will be stopping at your school soon.
