Mrs Lordina Dramani Mahama and her Lordina Foundation on Tuesday donated various items to the Osu Children’s Home and Christ Faith Foster Home in Adenta, continuing her long-standing tradition of sharing with the less privileged in society over the last two decades and more.
The donated items included bags of rice, cartons of cooking oil, canned tomatoes, beverages such as Milo and Nido, spaghetti, boxes of Tom Brown, sugar, biscuits, drinks, toffees, tissue paper, detergents, and sanitary pads, among other things others.
Mrs Mahama, wife of President-Elect John Dramani Mahama, has contributed to the development of deprived children and women in rural and urban areas by promoting quality health care, education, and general well-being.
The Lordina Foundation has adopted orphanages across the country, which it supports with food and non-food items. It also appreciates the staff of the homes.
Pastor Samuel Boateng Sarpong, a member of the Foundation’s board, presented the items on behalf of Mrs Mahama and conveyed her goodwill message to the children and staff of the two homes.
The Home Manager of Osu Children’s Home, Mr Reindorf Dartey, expressed their excitement for the pre-Christmas donation, noting that the facility has consistently received support from the Lordina Foundation and the Mahama family.
“In my six years here, we have always looked forward to hearing from our mother, Mrs. Lordina Mahama, during the festive season, so we are very happy you have come here today,” he stated.
Mr Adu Amoako, Manager of Christ Faith Foster Home, also thanked Mrs Mahama for consistently including them in her Christmas plans. He took the opportunity to extend seasonal greetings to the President-Elect, Mrs Mahama, and the family, praying that the new year brings them joy and many smiles, just as they have brought to the motherless and fatherless in their facility.
At least twice a year, including December, the Lordina Foundation presents donations to selected orphanages across the country to celebrate the Christmas season with the less fortunate in society.
