Past students of educational institutions, have been urged to contribute to the development of their Alma Mata to make them first class schools.
They could do this through the provision of facilities to show their appreciation for the contribution of their schools in making them what they are today in society.
Mr. H. A. Larbie, Chairman of the 1976 year group of the Ebenezer Senior High School, known as "Padua 76" who made the call at a meeting in Accra on Saturday said past students could help by rehabilitating facilities to promote teaching and learning.
He stressed the determination of the group to support Mr. Fritz Baffour, Member of Parliament for South Ablekuma, to repair the broken down fence wall of the school.
The MP promised to assist the school to construct the fence wall from his share of the GET Fund during last year's "Home coming" celebration of the Old Students Association.
Mr. Larbie, who is also the President of the Association of Private Medical Laboratories, stated that the building of the fence wall was pressing since it would create an atmosphere conducive for learning and help in warding off encroachers on the school's land.
He identified some of the needs of the School as a dormitory block and a Home Economics block and said Padua 76 was mobilizing funds for the projects.
The Ebenezer High School 1976 year group Chairman said about 25 past students resident in Europe and the United States had indicated their willingness to support the activities of the Old Students Association.
He said some of them had even paid their dues in advance and appealed to those in the country to join the Association to help the school and to meet their former mates to socialize and to support each other.
Mr. Daniel Okai, Chairman of the Odododiodioo Constituency of the National Democratic Congress and a member of Padua 76, also called on them to join the group since the school authorities could not provide all the needs of the school from its limited resources.
He said supporting their former schools would be their modest contribution to the development of education in the country since the government had limited resources to finance the socio-economic advancement of Ghana.
