Love Gives Foundation fetes the needy on Christmas Day

Over 100 people, including widows, the bed-ridden and the aged of Abirem in the Kwabre East District of the Ashanti Region, felt the true meaning of Christmas when Love Gives Foundation, a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO), donated some bags of rice, cooking oil, sardines and bags of sachet water to help them celebrate Christmas.

Founder and President of Love Gives Foundation, Lady Barbara Acheampong, and her team feted the vulnerable and underserved in the Abirem Community with what they believed would make the Christmas celebration a great one.

Lady Barbara indicated that, the foundation had for the past two years had registered and renewed the Health Insurance for the underserved. This is because she believes that no one should be refused basic health care due to financial constraints.

She added that, the reason for this gesture was the dire financial burden on the rural folks as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and to alleviate some of that burden, they felt the need to share with the needy and to put a smile on their faces which was the essence of Christmas.

The Operations Director of Love Gives Foundation-Ghana, Nana Akwasi Gyamfi, promised the community that this goodwill would not be a one-off exercise.

He said that, Love Gives would work hard to make the needs of the community its priority.

The Assembly member, Mr Amos Owuo, the Kyedomhene of Abirem, Nana Poku Asenso I, and the development committee, who received the items on behalf of the beneficiaries, expressed their profound appreciation to the foundation for this gesture and thanked them for reaching out to the vulnerable in the community especially during Christmas.
