CARE FOR THE POOR PROJECT<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Glory be to God almighty for another successful project. The year 2023 has begun well for the
organization and one thing we are proud of as ambassadors is the willingness to respond to duty
anytime we are called upon.
The CARE FOR THE POOR PROJECT came off on 07th April 2023 which saw the following emissaries
gracing the occasion Mr. Ernest Ayensu, Mr. Felix Tetteh, Miss Mary Afari, Miss Matilda Agbesi, Miss
Akyede Pa, Mr. Razak Hamidu, Mr. Francis Dzamesi, Miss Janet Impraim, Mr. Moses Arthur, Mr.
Philip Frimpong, and Mr. Emmanuel Ebo Essel.
The journey began at 7:00 am where members started gathering together and at 9:00am, the team
set off to visit their first home AKWADUM CHRISTIAN HOME in AKWADUM\u2013 EASTERN REGION.
The team got there and began engagement with the one of the caretaker called Miss Dzifa at the
premises who welcomed us. Mr. Ernest Ayensu revealed the intentions of our visitation.
Miss Dzifa, together with three other caregivers further engaged the team by giving account and
history of the home, which was very interesting and heartfelt message as it gave the team a mental
picture of their story. The dedication as well as the effort they are putting in to make the children
feel at home requires physical, emotional, and spiritual preparation. The home now has about 41
children presently.
The emissaries were given the opportunity to ask questions, of which they received answers to their
satisfaction. Items such as STATIONARY, 50kg OF RICE, TOILETRIES, HALF BAGS OF MAIZE, BEANS
and GARI, COOKING OIL, TOMATO PASTE, and A CANTON OF MILO AND MILK were presented to
the home. These items were presented by Mr. Moses Arthur.
The goods were received with much appreciation and a word of prayer was said for the team. The
team also expressed their appreciation for the warm reception given and asked permission to leave
since there was another journey before them.
The second Home was to JEHOVAH RAPHA CHILDREN\u2019S HOME\u2013 SUHUM, EASTERN REGION, equally
warm reception was received as the in-charge was in anticipation awaiting our arrival. We arrived,
pleasantries given and the team introduced themselves individually.
The in-charge re-iterated the importance and the value our support will give to the children and the
Home at large. She told us the history of the home and how they have been supporting the children
all these while. Currently, they have about 37 children, including a baby who is barely six (6) months
old.
The team upon further discussion handed over their items such included STATIONARY, 50kg OF
RICE, TOILETRIES, HALF BAGS OF MAIZE, BEANS and GARI, COOKING OIL, TOMATO PASTE, and A
CANTON OF MILO AND MILK and SOFT DRINKS to the home. Presentation was done by Mr. Philip
Frimpong. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An amount of GHc 9957.00<\/strong> was spent on 1st Quarter Project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pictures were taken, prayers were offered by the home to the foundation and finally, we
departed.
Team members got to their respective homes safely by God\u2019s Grace and the day\u2019s journey brought
to an end.
