Accra, Jan. 7, GNA - Division One League campaigners, Emirates Sporting Club has donated assorted items worth GHC 2,000 to Royal Seed Home/School, an orphanage at Kasoa near Accra.

The President appealed to other corporate bodies to come to the aid of the Home since the inmates are the future leaders of the country. Naomi Esi Amoah, Mother of the Home, expressed appreciation to the Club for coming to their aid.

She said the Home is faced with a lot of problems and will require the collective efforts of society.

Madam Esi Amoah said the Home has plans of embarking on more developmental projects such as construction of classrooms and boreholes among others to enhance the living standard of the children.
