The Foundation presented bags of rice, stationery, gallons of cooking oil and more to the school
Chris Attoh Foundation, a non-governmental organisation, has donated items to support Genesis School, an educational institution dedicated to providing free education to underprivileged children in Jamestown, Accra.
The Foundation presented bags of rice, stationery, gallons of cooking oil, washing and cleaning detergents, canned tomatoes, drinks, biscuits, and more.
In his remarks, renowned actor and philanthropist Chris Attoh stated that the Foundation is a charitable organization focused on helping those in need.
He emphasized the importance of kindness, love, and looking out for one another.
"The primary focus of the foundation is to support those in need," he said. "Our aim is to be flexible in our approach, not confining ourselves to a specific cause. The goal is to make a positive impact."
"It is heartening to know that our efforts can make a difference. These are the individuals we need to prioritize, which is why the foundation is concentrating on this area first. We hope to expand our impact in the future. As I mentioned, we cannot accomplish this alone—we are all interconnected. Let's work together to be the change we want to see."
"Every small act counts. Our goal is to emphasize the importance of taking care of our country and its youth. If we don't act, they may lose their way, and ultimately, it reflects poorly on us as elders. That's the essence of our mission. We seek to reach out to anyone who can contribute, providing a new avenue for us all to make a difference together," he added.
Racheal Naa Asabea Anang, founder of the school, lauded the foundation for the kind gesture, saying, "We are immensely grateful for the Chris Attoh Foundation's unwavering commitment to education. Their support will undoubtedly elevate the standard of education we provide and create transformative opportunities for our students."
Ms. Anang noted that every child has the right to education, which is why she established the school to provide free education for children within the community.
Appealing to other organisations and individuals for support, the founder of the school said, "We provide breakfast, lunch, and stationery to our students at no cost. We are committed to giving these children a good start in life. We currently have over 200 children enrolled, and we rely on donations to provide for their needs. A contribution of 100 kilos of food can sustain us for three weeks to a month. We are therefore appealing to others to come onboard and support us, and we will be forever grateful."
