As part of efforts to promote good oral hygiene among schoolchildren in the Fanteakwa South and North Districts of the Eastern Region, World Vision Ghana, in collaboration with Unilever Ghana and the Ghana Health Service, has organised a health screening programme for hundreds of pupils in basic schools across both districts.
The children, who also received free products from Pepsodent and World Vision, were educated on oral health.
According to World Vision, this initiative is part of their educational strategy to promote dental healthcare, which will ultimately improve the living conditions of schoolchildren in rural communities.
Jean-Claude Mukadi, Interim National Director of World Vision Ghana, shared his thoughts during the screening programme at Adjiekrom.
