Empire Foundation, spearheaded by EIB boss, Nathan Kwabena Anokye Adisi, aka Bola Ray, and his wife, Dorcas Anokye Adisi, has presented some items to the SOS Children’s villages.
As part of its annual visit to the Children’s Village, the Foundation donated items including; bags of rice, cooking oil, cleaning supplies, sanitary products, noodles, exercise books, drinking water, beverages, clothes, shoes, and an undisclosed amount of money.
Accepting the foundation’s kind gesture, the board chairman of SOS Children’s Villages, Mr Christian Appiah, heaped praises on Bola Ray and his wife for supporting Children’s Villages consistently for the past 13 years.
He said, “As Ambassador for SOS Children’s Villages, we are grateful for your constant support; thank you for supporting the well-being of children for 13 years, and we also entreat you to invite others to come to our aid.”
Speaking on behalf of the Foundation, Bola Ray said, “We will ensure that there will be more support even from the diaspora to backing this advocacy. Empire Foundation will always be back to support the SOS.”
He also acknowledged JayKay Industries Limited Twellium, Lele Foods, and all individuals for supporting the donation.
Bola Ray and his Empire Foundation have made it a duty to help provide for the needs of these less-privileged children.
The donation took place at the SOS Children’s Villages headquarters at Asylum Down on Friday, April 1, 2022.
Empire Foundation supported the SOS Children’s Villages, Ghana, to enrich the lives of the standard of living of children housed at the premises.
According to Managers of the Foundation, “Ongoing welfare monitoring of the previous year’s beneficiaries indicates that our annual donations go a long way to supplement the resources available to the children.
"With help from our benevolent partners in 2017, we adopted a house for 12 months, which ensured adequate shelter, nourishment, education, outfitting, upkeep, and nurturing of over 10 beneficiaries.“
The Children’s Village, which provides a community for a perfect family strengthening system, was opened in 1974 and has since raised many astute and talented children.
According to operators of the home, in the village, 15 SOS families provide a “loving home to children who can no longer live with their parents for a myriad of reasons”.
