“There have been several media reports of children abuse and we know that abuse and lack of love depress kids, what will make one maim a child? We believe the greatest legacy of anyone is how they treat children because the way to God’s heart is children.
“Every child deserves to be loved and cared for and that is what our foundation stands for compassion and kindness and I will urge the management to keep on with the good works and call on us anytime and asked the children to be of good behaviour and study hard,” she said.
Madam Freda Annor, who received the items on behalf of Gifty Sowah, in charge of the shelter, expressed profound gratitude to the foundation.
Madam Annor lauded them for coming to their rescue at a time a lot of people are struggling financially due to the covid-19 pandemic.
