Arsenal forward Eddie Nketiah has donated to the Akropong School for the Blind ahead of the institution's break for the festivities.
The donation was made through his foundation Nketiah Foundation which was established in 2023 with his parents leading the team to the school.
Among some of the items donated to the school were bags of rice, water, drinks and biscuits to aid them in their end-of-term day party.
The donation also included a cash prize as well as kettles and torch lights to make work easier for the teachers and guardians.
"We have been trying to do little things and we have discussed some things in the pipeline. We want to make this a formal relationship," Edward Nketiah, father of Eddie said during the presentation.
"We have two big projects. One was the sensory room and a play area for the kids. I spoke to the team and they took it up."
"We have a lot of challenges here. The foundation has come to the right place, we really need such help especially how you are touching the lives of the small ones," the headmistress of the school said.
"We hope these children will one day mention your name. Thank you for coming."
As part of the visitation, the Nketiah Foundation also had a dentist with them to check on the teeth of some of the students.
Two professional barbers were also with the team at the school premises to trim the hair of the kids.
The students also treated the team to some music as part of enjoying their time with them.
