The National Pensions Regulatory Authority (NPRA) has extended a helping hand to street children in Ghana by donating GHS 30,000 to two key non-governmental organizations (NGOs) dedicated to their welfare. The organizations: The Father Andrew Campbell Foundation for Street Children and the Cronof Family Foundation, both renowned for their work with underprivileged children, were the beneficiaries of this generous contribution.
The donation forms part of NPRA's broader corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts, which are focused on fostering positive change and uplifting marginalized communities.
Speaking on the donation, John Kwaning Mbroh, Chief Executive Officer of NPRA, highlighted the Authority's commitment to supporting charitable initiatives that align with their values.
He explained that the donation not only aims to enhance the care and resources available to street children but also serves as an expression of gratitude for the successful commencement of the Authority’s Head Office construction project.
“It’s heartwarming to see organizations like these making such a tangible difference in the lives of vulnerable children,” Mr. Mbroh noted. “Street children in Ghana face a myriad of challenges, from poverty and exploitation to limited access to education and healthcare. It’s crucial that they receive the support they need to overcome these obstacles and have a fair chance at a better future.”
The Father Andrew Campbell Foundation and Cronof Family Foundation have long been recognized for their efforts to provide shelter, education, and healthcare to street children across the country. This latest donation from NPRA will enable these organizations to expand their reach and continue offering essential services to those who need them most.
The NPRA avers their gesture is not only fulfilling its corporate responsibility but also reinforcing the importance of community partnerships in tackling social issues. “Through initiatives like this, we are helping to ensure that the nation’s most vulnerable children have the support and resources necessary to thrive,” John Mbroh emphasized.
