The Assembly Member for the Atwima Takyiman/Denkyemuoso Electoral Area in the Ashanti Region, Hon. David Asare, has lavished praise on the Kofi Job Foundation for extending a generous hand of support to some of the most vulnerable members of his community—widows and orphans.
According to Hon. Asare, the recent donation exercise by the foundation brought immense relief to over 30 widows and 30 orphans residing within his electoral area. The life-changing intervention, he noted, came after an announcement was aired on OTEC 102.9 FM about a broader donation drive being organized by the foundation. The news prompted numerous widows and orphans to rush to the radio station to register and participate.
In a well-coordinated effort, beneficiaries were registered and issued identification numbers to ensure a smooth and orderly distribution of items. Each individual received essential foodstuffs including bags of rice, bottles of cooking oil, frozen chicken, and a cash package to support their basic needs and livelihoods.
Hon. David Asare emphasized that the impact of the donation could not be overstated, especially considering the ongoing economic difficulties confronting many low-income households. “This was a true act of mercy. The support brought smiles and renewed hope to families who have struggled in silence for far too long,” he stated.
He further revealed that the Chosen Generation of Jesus Christ Children’s Home, an orphanage located within his electoral jurisdiction, also benefited from the gesture. Over 30 children in the home were provided with food and other essentials to support their daily upkeep.
“The management of the orphanage expressed deep appreciation for the timely support,” Hon. Asare added. “Many of these children depend solely on the kindness of others, and the Kofi Job Foundation’s intervention has made a significant difference in their lives.”
The Assembly Member commended the leadership of the foundation for their commitment to humanitarian work and their decision to reach deep into local communities with practical support. He described the initiative as a shining example of how non-governmental organizations can partner with local authorities to bring real development to the grassroots.
He also called on other philanthropists, NGOs, and corporate bodies to emulate the example set by the Kofi Job Foundation. “We must all remember that society is strongest when we care for the most vulnerable. What the foundation has done here is a reflection of true humanity.”
The donation at Atwima Takyiman/Denkyemuoso formed part of a wider outreach by the Kofi Job Foundation, which supported over 1,000 widows and needy individuals across the Ashanti Region and beyond.
Residents of the community have since expressed heartfelt gratitude and shared testimonies of how the intervention has eased their burdens. For many, it was more than just material support—it was a reminder that they have not been forgotten.
