Staff of Citi FM are this morning headed for two orphanages in the country to make cash and kind donations as a way of making the celebration of Easter worthwhile for the inmates.
This is part of the company’s annual Easter Orphan Project.
The selected orphanages are Baptist School Complex (BASCO), an orphanage at Trotor, near Suhum in the Eastern Region, and Handivangelism Orphanage at Haatso in Accra.
The Programmes Manager for Citi FM/Citi TV, Jessica Opare-Saforo revealed that the initial plan was to donate the items to BASCO but the generous donation of some corporate organizations and individuals has made it possible for the support to be extended to another orphanage; Handivangelism.
The Executive Director of Hopeway Ministry Children’s Home, Pastor Reindorf Ashley thanked the management of Citi FM/TV for the kind gesture.
The station has been embarking on this event annually for the past 15 years.
Over the years, Citi FM has supported the orphanages with cash donations, stationery, food items, toiletries, and other domestic items collected from the station’s listeners and clients who make generous contributions towards the project.
In 2013, the station through the support of its listeners and corporate Ghana built a vocational training centre for BASCO, and the centre was intended to cater for training in carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, hairdressing, and masonry.
The Easter Orphan Project is a part of Citi FM’s Corporate Social Responsibility.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the visit has been limited to Citi FM staff. In the past, Citi FM listeners joined in the trip to make donations.
