Let’s support the less privileged –NPP Treasurer

The Central Regional Treasurer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr. Francis Asare, has appealed to Ghanaians, particularly Christians, to kindly identify the less privileged members in their immediate community and environs to support them.

This, he said, is the surest way to build a common communal spirit and give hope to the seemingly disgruntled members of society to help build a prosperous nation.

Mr. Asare made this known when he visited the Royal Promise Mission Centre, an orphanage home, which is located at Nkanfua Newtown, in the Cape Coast North Constituency, to donate to the centre.

Giving a short speech during the donation, Mr. Asare stated that he was always worried about the plight of the less privileged people in his community, particularly children in orphanage homes.

“I feel for them and I always wish I could do a lot to ameliorate their situation and that is why I am here with my family to put smiles on their faces in my own small way”, he explained.

He added that: “When we fail to address the issue of streetism as a society or a country, we provide fertile grounds for the breeding of monsters that grow and tend to terrorise us and disturb our peace”.

He said “there will be no future tomorrow if we cannot support and protect the vulnerable ones among us and leave them to their fate, because the children are our leaders for tomorrow and future hope”.

He, therefore, expressed appreciation to those who have accepted the challenge to provide decent lives for children, who through no fault of theirs have become orphans and called for regular support from others.

“The role of the media is to become aware of this centre and highlight it, so that others who will be touched about the plights of the younger ones could also come and support”, he stated.

Receiving the items, Mrs Elizabeth Forson, who is in charge of the facility, praised Mr Asare and his family for being generous and compassionate about the well-being of the children at the centre.

Expressing her joy, she mentioned that the donated items would go a long way to assist in the day-to-today running of the facility and, therefore, prayed to God to replenish the stock of the donors.

The donation of the items, which included bags of rice, bottled water, tissues, boxes of biscuits and toiletries among others, coincided with the marking of Mr and Mrs. Asare’s twin sons.
