Fairfax, Virginia — Though oceans and decades separate them from the sunlit halls of Bishop Herman College (BIHECO) in Kpando, Ghana, the alumni of this storied institution remain bound by purpose. The Bishop Herman Old Boys’ Union of North America (BHOBU-NA), a registered non-profit of Ghanaian alumni across the United States, is mobilizing for a landmark gathering that blends legacy, strategy, and philanthropy.

2026 Congress: A Summit of Vision and Impact
Set for May 15–16, 2026, at the Hilton Fairfax in Virginia, the BHOBU-NA Congress is more than a reunion, it is a strategic summit designed to shape the future of BIHECO and strengthen the Union’s global footprint. The two-day event will convene alumni from across North America to reconnect, collaborate, and invest in the next generation of Ghanaian leaders.
Mission in Motion
BHOBU-NA’s triple mandate, unity, educational excellence, and professional advancement, drives every aspect of the Congress. Highlights include:
- Professional Networking Sessions: Fostering cross-sector collaboration among alumni
- Strategic Business Meeting: Charting the Union’s future direction
- Endowments Fundraising Dinner Dance: A signature event to raise funds for BIHECO’s development projects
This dinner-dance is more than celebration, it’s a call to action. Proceeds will support modernization efforts at Bishop Herman College, ensuring it remains a beacon of excellence for generations to come.
“The Congress is a tangible representation of our commitment,” said a BHOBU-NA spokesperson. “We recognize that our success began at BIHECO, and we are determined to pass that torch forward.”
Bridging Continents, Building Futures
The 2026 Congress reflects a growing movement among African diaspora organizations to reinvest in the institutions that shaped them. By hosting the event in Fairfax, BHOBU-NA creates a central hub for strategic engagement—connecting alumni across borders with a shared mission to uplift BIHECO.
As preparations intensify, BHOBU-NA extends an open invitation to all past students and stakeholders to join this transformative moment. The Congress will reaffirm the Union’s role as a vital force in Ghanaian education and a proud advocate for its global alumni community.
