A global network of professional firms providing Audit, Tax and Advisory services, KPMG has donated 40 bunk beds valued at GHS 10,000 and other assorted food items totaling GHS 15,000 to the Wa Methodist School for the Blind. The Marketing manageress of the Ghana KPMG branch, Dorothy Donkor made the presentation on behalf of the Ghana branch. She said a visit two years ago to the school by KPMG Ghana gave them first-hand information about the burning down of the boys’ dormitory with the belongings of the students. KPMG then provided 120 students’ mattresses valued at GHS 4,859.00 to the school. The latest donation according to Dorothy Donkor comes from the contribution of the staff of KGMP in Ghana as they were moved by the plight of the wards of the school. The school was then chosen to be the beneficiary of corporate citizenship initiative. She said the initiative to support the school began after the Society for the Blind pointed out to KGMP the desperate situation in the school where children were in dire need of basic teaching and learning tools. The KPMG-Ghana marketing manageress said the visually impaired need special equipment and materials which are not readily available. She said most schools are ill equipped for the special needs of the physically challenged and the situation is no different for the visually impaired in Wa School for the Blind. In that regard she said KPMG made several donations totaling over GHS 80, 000 in the form of learning aids including styli and boards, transcribed brailed books and brail embossers in response to a direct request made to KGMP by the school. The Principal of the Wa Methodist School for the Blind, Mr. Sampson Akrugu, thanked the delegates of KPMG and hoped that the relationship between the school and the KPMG will be strengthened. Mr. Samson pledge that the items would be put to good use in order for the benefit of the students and also for the donors to achieve to the fullest their dream of helping the students.
