The Foundation has also made donations to the Korle- Bu Children Hospital, Cheshire Rehabilitation Home in Kumasi, The GirlChild Ghana and would do another presentation to the Jehovah Rapha Orphanage at Suhum before the year ends.

It is the vision of the foundation to raise funds and donations from all sources to further the aims of the charity to help those who most need assistance and hope.

Mr Adadey said the foundation would continue to help and support other deprived and under-served areas across the entire country.
