Monrovia – Two underprivileged institutions in Grand Bassa County have benefited from a donation of food items from a non-profit organization Richcare Foundation.
The donation is the organization’s way of giving back to the needy, according to foundation Executive Director Ephraim S. Ward, who travelled to Grand Bassa County with some members of the organization to present food items to the Christian Association of the Blind, Grand Bassa Chapter as well as the TODCAD Charity Orphanage home in Hanlandville Grand Bassa County.
The items worth over US$800 and included rice, oil, tissue, and bathing soap.
The two beneficiaries received 12 bags of rice, 4 gallons of oil, tissues, and bathing soap.
Speaking during the presentation the Executive Director of the Rich Care Foundation Ephraim S. Ward said his foundation will remain committed when it comes to giving to orphanages, less fortunate, old folks, and others in need.
“The Foundation through its CEO Mr. Prince Dennis alias Rich Man is working tirelessly to reach out to those in need if not all of them but the majority of them,” Mr. Ward said.
“During this season time, we understand that you guys are really in need and can’t afford so it’s why we decided to be a blessing to you guys,” he said.
Receiving the items on behalf of the Christian Association of the Blind, Mr Robert Kpadoe said he was grateful to the foundation and its CEO for thinking about giving back to society and the foundation should continue to reach out as it is given that you received.
He said the blind association has been abandoned because the government feeds them two times a year. He also said that the Rich Care Foundation should keep up the good work and will reach a high level with the help of the Almighty.
Also speaking on behalf of the Todd Orphanage home, Madam Patience David who inherited the orphanage home from her late husband said the food items were timely as the last food finished the very day the foundation came up to their aid.
She acknowledged the humanitarian part of the Foundation and said the Foundation should continue thinking about them because Christian Aid had stopped their support to them but never state the reason for which.
It is the third time Rich Care Foundation has identified with the needed in recent time.
In early December, the foundation made donations of school items to children from several schools in Monrovia.
