The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Engineers and Planners and Dzata Cement, Ibrahim Mahama, has extended support to persons with disabilities through a donation to the Disabled Christian Fellowship International and the Accra Rehabilitation Centre.

The donation, made on Wednesday, December 24, through Engineers and Planners Corporate Limited, formed part of the company's humanitarian efforts to support vulnerable groups during the festive season.

Items presented included 100 bags of rice, 20 cartons of corned beef, 20 cartons of mackerel, and 20 cartons of cooking oil.

Receiving the items on behalf of the beneficiaries, the Executive Director of the Disabled Christian Fellowship International and immediate past President of the Amputee Football Federation of Africa (AFFA), Francis Adjetey Sowah, expressed deep appreciation to Mr Mahama for coming to the rescue of people living with disabilities. He said the timing of the donation was very important to its members.

According to Mr Sowah, many persons with disabilities struggle to access basic food items, especially during festive celebrations. He noted that the donation would bring relief and a sense of inclusion to beneficiaries who are often overlooked.

He praised Mr Mahama for remembering the disability community at a time of joy, describing the act as worthy of emulation.

He further said the support had renewed hope among members of the fellowship, adding that the gesture would remain memorable to them.

"This recognition gives us strength, dignity, and a sense of belonging," he indicated.

The items were presented on behalf of Mr Mahama by his Special Aide, Rafik Mahama, who reiterated the company's commitment to supporting persons with disabilities.

He revealed that Engineers and Planners Company Limited are considering future initiatives focused on capacity building and innovative programmes for the disability community.
