Over 300 people, both young and old, gathered at the Dodowa Presbyterian School Park to receive food, clothing, medicines, and free health screenings.
aYo Ghana provided hot meals and drinks, while DrugNet donated medicines worth over GHS40,000. SoftLife conducted health screenings, including blood pressure, blood sugar, and temperature checks, with medical advice for those in need. The Lions Club contributed used clothing and shoes.
Lion Dr. Helena Asamoah-Hassan, District Governor of District 418 – Ghana for Lions Club International, explained that the focus for December is combating hunger, especially during the dry season.
