PriceWaterhouse gives to foster home

THE PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PWC), a consultancy and auditing firm, has donated items to the Christ Faith Foster Home in Accra.
The items included eight bags of rice, five bags of beans and maize, as well as vegetables, fruits, gallons of oil, detergents and toiletries, among other things.
The Corporate Finance and Recovery Director of PWC, Mr Eric Nana Nipah, said the donation was part of the company’s corporate social responsibility to the society in which it operated.
“This initiative was driven by an adherence to make impact within countries of operation in the area of health, education and the environment,” he added.
He said although the donation was the first of giving back to the society, he expressed hope in organising other programmes such as speech day for the Home’s basic school and health checks, through which they would impact positively, inspire and motivate the children, adding that “this would let the children feel as though they were a part of us”.
Mr Nipah stated that the company had dedicated $20,000 for development projects at the Christ Faith Foster Home and other charity homes, beginning next year.
The PWC organised a Christmas party for the children with lots of fun games and activities during which the staff of PWC interacted with the children.
The Administrator and Supervisor of the Home, Madam Victoria Abraham, was grateful to the PWC for its enormous support.
However, she said the Home, which catered for about 47 children, lacked potable drinking water.
“We call on benevolent societies and individuals to come to our aid,” she appealed.
The items were presented by the Administrative and Marketing Manager of PWC, Mrs Barbara Coleman.
