Presenting the items, the Leader of the Foundation, Miss Abena Afedzie said members of the NGO were touched by the plight of the children at the Home and decided to donate the items to address some of their challenges.
He hoped the items would go a long way in helping the children in their education to become responsible adults and contribute towards the development of society.
