“Food Sharing Program for Street Connected Children”
The First Lady’s foundation, the Rebecca Akufo-Addo Foundation, has donated many bags of rice, meat, canisters of cooking oil and tomato puree to cook for the children on the street. On April 1st we started our “Food Sharing Program” in Accra and together with other NGO s in Kumasi.

“Follow up calls for children and families”
