He was supported by twelve volunteers who contributed to the event's success.
This year, the annual charity project took to the streets on Friday, November 4 and served the homeless free lunch packs, 100 packs of purified water and also bought some food and beverage vendors’ products without hawking under the sun.
Speaking about the charity project, he said, "It has always been in my heart to give back to the community." "I understand the whole duty of man is to empower others." "As a result, we have resolved to go on a charity project, namely, to feed over 5,000 orphans and street kids this Friday"
He added that this kind gesture will be repeated monthly to support the vulnerable in other areas of Accra.
