UCS Facility Management, a wing of the Jospong Group of Companies (JGC), has embarked on its maiden community volunteer clean-up exercise in the East Legon enclave in Accra.
The exercise, which forms part of the “Adopt a Street” campaign by Zoomlion Ghana Limited, another subsidiary of JGC, aims to promote a clean environment and healthy living.
Speaking to the media, the Managing Director of UCS Facility Management, Yaa Dansua Ampofo, noted that the exercise was part of a broader initiative to promote volunteerism in the communities in which they operate.
“As a corporate entity, our responsibility goes beyond the balance sheets and the boardroom. It also includes contributing to a cleaner, greener environment,” she said.
The clean-up exercise involved weeding, sweeping, and painting the median of American House–Bawaleshie Street and the intersection at the traffic light.
She encouraged other organisations to embrace the “Adopt a Street” campaign to promote cleanliness across the country, noting that such activities serve both communities and humanity.
The exercise, which started at 7 a.m. on Tuesday, April 15, 2025, was widely applauded by residents in the cleaned areas.
Residents expressed satisfaction and urged other corporate bodies to emulate the gesture by UCS Facility Management.
A resident, Nicholas, emphasized that environmental cleanliness is everyone’s responsibility and encouraged the public to take advantage of Zoomlion’s “Adopt a Street” strategy to help achieve the clean environment Ghanaians aspire to.
