The Ghana Water Accra West Ladies’ Association on Tuesday donated essential supplies to the Chosen Children’s Centre, an orphanage dedicated to caring for abandoned and vulnerable children.
The items included diapers, wipes, baby food, toiletries, detergents, bottles of water, rice, cooking oil, sugar, and clothing for children of various ages.”
Presenting the items, the Chairperson of the Ghana Water Accra West Ladies’ Association, Mrs Patience Mensma Acquah, said the kind gesture formed part of the association’s annual outreach initiative.
She noted that it also forms part of the association’s ongoing commitment to giving back to the community and supporting the most vulnerable.
“We noticed they needed a lot of items for infants as young as two months old, so we brought diapers, wipes, baby food, toiletries, detergents, and other necessities such as rice, cooking oil, sugar, and clothing for children of various ages,” Mrs Acquah said.
The Manager of Chosen Children’s Centre, Mr Eyison Walid, expressed heartfelt appreciation to the Ghana Water Accra West Ladies’ Association for the kind gesture, adding that it would go a long way to help the children.
He said the centre had 60 children, including 10 infants, adding that the support came at a critical time.
“Things are hard, and you’ve given us so much, will help us in the long run, especially with the babies and abandoned children sent to us by social welfare,” he noted.
