On Saturday October 1, the Rotary Club of Accra Ring Road Central (RRC) will embark on a sponsored walk through the principal streets of Accra.The walk will serve two main purposes – raise funds for RRC’s community work whilst raising public awareness of Rotary International’s polio eradication drive.RRC aims to raise GHC50,000 to support its numerous community projects through its premiere fund-raising event, Walk for a Child.Funds from this walk will go towards the completion of a school project in the village of Asempaneye in the Eastern Region of Ghana, medical outreach in the Accra suburb of Maamobi and the rehabilitation of some facilities at the Maamobi Hospital.Victor Yaw Asante, President of the Rotary Club of Accra Ring Road Central explained in an interview that the walk is part of its core duties to serve their communities.“As Rotarians it is our duty to serve our communities. Each member of RRC is committed to making a difference to our communities and the world at large. We do this by raising funds, and spending those investments wisely in the most deprived communities of Ghana,” he said.Victor Asante who is also the West Africa Regional Head of Transaction Banking at Standard Charted Bank urged that, “We need everyone to come on board so that together we make a difference. Individuals, groups and corporate bodies are all welcome to contribute to RRC’s fundraiser by walking for a child, supporting a member of RRC to walk for a child or contributing cash or goods in kind to RRC’s fund-raising efforts.”
