A non-governmental organisation (NGO) based in Koforidua, the Eastern Regional capital, AYD Foundation has donated to the Koforidua Prisons on Easter Monday.
The donation was to put smiles on the faces of inmates at the facility especially during the Easter festivities and also assure them of their support despite the current situation they find themselves in.
Being the maiden edition of the NGO to donate to the Prisons, management were optimistic the gesture will go a long way to augment government’s support to both inmates and Prison officers.
Mr. Asare Yeboah Daniel, the founder of AYD Foundation in a short speech indicated the NGO has since 2018 donated to many orphanage homes across the region as part of its widow’s mite contribution to helping the needy and less privileged in society.
However, he stated that donating to the Prisons is the first of its kind and assured it would be repeated in the coming years to show love to inmates.
Items donated includes 3 bags of gari, 1 bag of yam, 1 big of maize, T- rolls, 2 boxes of soap and 15 bags of sachet water at a cost of an undisclosed amount of money.
Authorities of the facility were grateful to the management of the NGO for the support and pledged to use the items for the intended purposes.
