The Ghana Care Foundation, a non-governmental organisation based in the United Kingdom, has donated assorted educational materials to the Dufia of Tsito Awudome in the Volta Region, Togbe Gobo Dake XII, for onward distribution to schools in the area.
The items included; pre-school story books, story books, pens, pencils and nose marks.
At a short ceremony to hand over the items, Ms Isabella Prowse, Executive Officer of Ghana Care Foundation said, "it gives me joy to be here today to donate these items to the community and hope it will go a long way in helping to improve learning and teaching here." She said the donation was in response to an appeal made to her in one of her visits to Ghana by a friend, Mr Addison Badu, to support schools in his community.
Ms Prowse noted that, providing support to the education sector, especially basic needs of deprived schools, was something her NGO had undertaken for some years now.
