The Women's Forum of the Ghana Bar Association (GBA) has made a generous donation to the New Horizon Education Centre for the Blind in Ho, Volta Region.
The team, led by Dina Dzifa Amefinu and Jemima Addo, emphasized that this donation was part of their ongoing commitment to extend support and convey a gesture of appreciation for Mother's Day.
The team donated six A4 packs of Braille sheets, 25 pieces of stylus, two bags of rice, three gallons of 5L cooking oil, three packs of drinks, one bag of toilet rolls, five packs of toothpaste, packets of tomato puree, powder detergents, and a nourishing lunch for the kids, alongside other essentials.
Madam Amefinu shared her personal experience visiting the school, which inspired the initiative to address their urgent needs.
She also highlighted that the team's effort was part of a wider initiative spanning across all regions of Ghana.
Expressing gratitude for the donations, the director of the centre, Mr. Eric Kwablah Ofori, underscored the significance of the contribution in improving the lives of the students.
He shed light on some of the challenges faced by the institution, including a shortage of human resources for special needs education, inadequate learning materials, and the absence of laptops for accessible computing training.
