"We believe that in putting the spotlight on these humanitarian efforts, it will not only celebrate them but help build a strong platform for them by giving voice and opportunities to the next generation of industry pacesetters while building a positive attitude. We have seen outstanding individuals and companies of trailblazers striving hard with dedication and perseverance by overcoming challenges and economic instability to impact lives and sustain the environment. These are the people or business we want to award."
Mrs. Amoateng's recognition may not come as a surprise to persons who have followed her works as a number of individuals have been beneficiaries.
Among others, she "raised GH¢40,000 for a woman whose husband allegedly poured acid on her. The said amount was to assist her undergo plastic surgery."
She has "supported underprivileged children in school; financed the surgery of a 72-year-old man; supported a widow with seven children; supported a young woman who came back from Kuwait almost crippled because her boss pushed her off a storey building to go through the final phase of her surgery."
After a successful surgery, she helped the woman to rent a house and start business on her own.
The television personality has also "supported a single mother with two daughters to rent a house as they lived in an uncompleted house; rented a house for a visually challenged man whose family threw him out; done a lot of advocacy against domestic violence and abuse."
Through her 'Youth to Lead Intiative', a young woman has received GH¢10,000 as startup money for any business of her choice.
