Amamoo Donates To Orphanage In Cairo

Ghanaian International goalkeeper, William Amamoo "The Black Panther" on sunday donated some items to the Hanna Children's Home in Cairo, Egypt as part of his contribution towards the up-keep of the under privileged in the society. He donated food items and an undisclosed amount of money.

Speaking to the agile goalie who is currently plying his trade in Egypt with Etsalat F/C, he said the donation was to fulfil a pledge he made to the orphanage on his first visit to Egypt about a month ago. "I paid a visit to the Orphanage and from what I saw I decided to make the donation to help in the up-keep of the children".

The Black Stars number two goalkeeper, assured the Orphanage of many more of such donations in the future to encourage the children realise their ambitions in life .

The head of the Orphanage commended William Amamoo for his kind gesture and told him he is now part of them and that they will put the items into good use.

When I quizzed him regarding the money he gave to the Orphanage, the Black Stars goalkeeper said, "I am not prepared to disclose it because it's between me and my God and I don't need to tell the whole world how much I donate to charity"

Amamoo, said he will be making a similar donation to the Osu Children's Home after the Black Stars 2010 World Cup qualifier against Lesotho in Ghana next month.

William Amamoo has also revealed that in April 2009 he will be building a recreational centre for the aged in Ghana where they will come from their homes and watch movies, play cards,oware, Ludo and draft.

The Black Panther played for Dawu Youngsters and Heart Of Lions before joining the exodus train to Russia and Sweden. He is currently a player of Coventry City F/C of England but he is on a one year loan to Etisalat F/C. He was invited for the Black Stars friendly game against Australia in May this year and has since become part of the senior national team.
