The Singing Band Group of the Ahensan Seventh Day Adventist (SDA) Church in Kumasi has donated a number of items to the King Jesus Charity Home at Boadi, in the Oforikrom municipality of the Ashanti region, to support the upkeep of the inmates.
The items were tin tomatoes, sardines, bags of charcoal, cartons of toilet roll, dustbins, used clothes, Gari and an unspecified amount of cash.
Presenting the gifts to the orphanage, Felix Adjei Daniel, the Leader of the group, said their aim was to support the needy in society.
He noted that the presentation was not a nine-day wonder, but rather a continuous activity, as they (the group) believe that giving of alms is part of evangelism.
Mr Adjei Daniel also quoted from the Bible and counseled Christians as well as other religious groups to always show love and affection to the less privileged in society.
Touching on the upcoming general elections in December, he elucidated that the S.D.A Church was going to follow what God had directed it to do.
However he said, they (SDA church) cannot restrict a member who wishes to exercise his or her franchise.
Receiving the items, Reverend Krobea Asante, Head of the orphanage, thanked the group for their benevolence.
He expressed the hope that other churches, well-meaning individuals, corporate institutions and construction firms would come to their aid by  supporting  them with iron rods, cements and other building materials to expand its educational infrastructure.
He disclosed that the orphanage, since its inception in 1995, has been facing many challenges and called on corporate bodies to emulate what the Ahensan Seventh Day Adventist Church Singing Band Group had done.
The orphanage, he noted, currently has 91 orphans and 14 workers, and relies on corporate bodies and individuals for support.
