The Buzstop Boys were honoured with the Digital Hero Sustainable Award at the MTN Heroes of Change 2025 for their impactful use of digital platforms to promote environmental sanitation and community development in Ghana.
The Buzstop Boys received a cash prize of thirty thousand Ghana cedis to support their philanthropic projects.
The group has changed the mindset of many Ghanaians on littering, which chokes gutters and eventually causes flooding through advocacy on social media.
Ten finalists were honoured, with the coveted overall award going to the Founder of the Ark Foundation, Dr. Angela Dwamena-Aboagye, who received GH¢100,000. They shared the photo on Instagram with this caption:
"We did it—together! 🏆 Thank you for voting BuzstopBoys “Volunteers” as the Digital Hero in the MTN Heroes of Change! Your clicks, shares, and endless support made this win possible. This award isn’t just ours—it’s for every one of you who believes in cleaner streets, greener cities, and real change. Let’s keep moving forward, one stop at a time! 💛🌍."

Buz Stop Boys flaunt their business forms
Buz Stop Boys have made significant progress in transforming their passion into a well-meaning and sustainable venture.
The youth-led group has successfully registered a limited liability waste management company in Ghana.
The organisation obtained its certificate of incorporation from the Accra Registrar-General's Department.
As a limited liability corporation, Pro Buz Stop Boys (PoBSB) is now the official name of the organisation of sanitation aficionados.
Heneba Kojo Sarfo, the group's founder and leader, believes that forming a business would allow them to accept cleaning and sanitation contracts.

The dedicated team member died after being involved in a grisly road accident, throwing his colleagues into a state of mourning.
Heneba Kwadwo Sarfo, the group's leader, at the time stated that most members of the team struggled to come to terms with the passing of their beloved friend and partner.
