Faustina and Juliana happily show-off their new uniforms and other items
The death of their father and enormous debt around the neck of their mother nearly prevented Faustina Badu and Juliana Badu from continuing their education.
But for the timely intervention of a Ghanaian domiciled in the United States, the two sisters would have dropped out of school in the Adansi Fomena district of the Ashanti Region.
The philanthropist, Joyce Narh says she was touched by the plight of the Badu family in a story that was published by Journalists Against Abuse (JAA) on thepressradio.com on Thursday 8th March 2018.
It could be recalled that on the celebration of the International Women's Day, JAA published the sorry state of the two pupils who share one school uniform at the Fumso R/C Primary 'A'.
Miss Narh noted that she could not stop crying when she read the headline alone.
As a foremost gesture, she has donated school bags, 2 pair of shoes, 2 sets of uniforms, 2 sets of tables and chairs, 20 exercise books and notebooks plus a lantern to the Badu family through JAA at a short ceremony at Fumso barely 48 hours that the story went viral.
Miss Narh revealed that her gesture would not end here adding that the best for the two sisters are in store.
To this end, she advised Faustina and Juliana to learn hard and not to think about their predicament.
Florence Nimako, their mother was full of gratitude and asked for God's blessings for Joyce Narh.
Like Oliver Twist, she asked for more since she has 6 other children who need catering.
