For some in Ghana and the world over Easter simply marks the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ but for many others, especially the less privileged and the destitute, it is that time when they, too, are remembered – a time they look forward to in the year. Like their counterparts in the slum areas of the Central Business District of Accra who receive medical screening, used clothing, food and drinks at Joy FM’s Easter Soup Kitchen, orphans and other less privileged children in the Mountain town of Mpraeso Kwahu now look forward to Easter with hope and excitement thanks to the Comfort Obeng Memorial Foundation. For the second year running, the Foundation with sponsorship from Virtual Security Africa Ltd., dealers in, and providers of, modern security products and services, Unibank, Unicredit, Bank of Africa and Crown Insurance has fed and counseled many children in the area. Unlike last year when a little over 500 children from the Bless the Child International Orphanage at Nkwatia, Kwahu, in the Eastern Region and other less privileged kids were treated to a buffet lunch, this year’s event saw a doubling of that number. At the same venue at the forecourt of the Mpraeso Chief Palace over a thousand children and old ladies thronged the grounds eager to catch a bite of a good meal with drinks to go with. The organizers were visibly overwhelmed by the numbers. But for a pre-event decision to double the quantity of food handed out last year, some would have come and left the venue hungry and disappointed. Fortunately that did not happen.
