As part of our long-standing commitment to community development and access to essential resources, the Mohinani Group has constructed a borehole water facility for the people of Gazawa, a rural community in Kano State, Nigeria.
Commissioned in July 2025, the facility has significantly improved access to clean and safe drinking water for hundreds of residents who have long faced water scarcity and the health risks associated with unsafe water sources.
Before this intervention, the decent people of Gazawa depended on an unsafe open well that often ran dry and posed serious health and safety risks. With the new borehole, families now enjoy sustainable access to clean water for drinking, household use, and farming.
Community leaders and residents expressed deep appreciation for the intervention, describing it as a timely and life-changing gesture.
The Gazawa project is but one of the several interventions we’re making in health, education, environmental sustainability, and infrastructural development as part of our CSR projects in Ghana and Nigeria.

The program, which falls within a broader Mohinani Food Program, an intermittent food intervention in dire circumstances, aims to spread joy, encouragement, and warmth where they’re needed most.
At the time of this publication, fifteen basic schools and counting, as well as seven orphanages and special schools spread across the Greater Accra, Eastern, Northern, Bono, and Central regions, had benefited from this initiative, with over one thousand street children also receiving their share. Other social institutions, including the Nuguchi Memorial Institute at the University of Ghana, have also welcomed the meal van at their facilities.

The Mohinani Group, in 2025, fully renovated the classroom and administrative block it originally built for the Amanokrom Presby Junior High School in the Eastern Region of Ghana.
The renovation project, which forms part of the Group’s continued commitment to education and community development, included structural refurbishments, new roofing, upgraded windows and doors, and a fresh coat of paint. The administrative block also received much-needed upgrades to enhance functionality and provide a more conducive environment for teaching and learning.
The administrative block, built a few decades ago, was named after Devi Mohinani, the mother of the late Mr. Ramchand Mohinani, our founder, and signifies a strong tie between the Mohinani family and the royal house of Amanokrom.
Similar support has been extended to the Manya Jorpanya Basic School, also located in the eastern region of Ghana—the school building has received a significant infrastructural facelift and an enhanced teaching and learning atmosphere in line with the Mohinani’s commitment to quality education.
The Impact Care and Rehabilitation Foundation, a facility dedicated to children with special needs in Accra, is one of several institutions the Mohinani Group has consistently supported under the Diversity and Inclusion pillar of our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts.
In 2023, the Group donated essential supplies, including meals and bottled water, to ensure the children received proper nourishment and care. Through its retail subsidiary, Electromart, Mohinani also provided a double-door refrigerator, improving the center’s ability to safely store food and medical supplies.
Demonstrating deeper commitment, the Group went further by covering the full cost of surgery for an infant with hydrocephalus who had been abandoned at the center, paying rent for the facility’s accommodation, donating six pediatric chairs for the children, and offering a cash token to support stipends and general operations.
Beyond Impact Care, Mohinani has extended support to several other orphanages and special needs institutions across Ghana, including the Chosen Children’s Home (for street children, orphans, and substance-affected youth), Teshie Children’s Home, Nyame-Dua Orphanage Home, Christ Faith Foster Home, Epicenter Special School in Gbawe, and the Yumba Special School in Tamale.

The timely gesture is in response to a national call by the National Disaster Management Organization (NADMO) to assist the victims with Polytanks to enable them get access to portable water following the explosion that occurred in the community two weeks ago.
