A Ghanaian charity and several Chinese companies on Sunday donated batches of daily necessities to worse-off communities in the Ashanti Region.
The items, including bags of rice, cooking oil, sardines, and beverages, were donated to certain groups of people at Kramokrom and Adumkrom, two poverty-stricken communities in the region.
Laud Ofori Afrifa, a representative of the Community Connect Network, a private charitable organization in Ghana, said that it is hoped that the donations will help those in need.
Ding Ling, a Chinese entrepreneur who joined the Ghanaian charity group to make the donation, said that she has the children in mind during the festive season.
Janet Asantewaa, a resident of Adumkrom, expressed appreciation for the donation, saying that it will support them a great deal.
She also expressed optimism that the relationship among locals, the charity, and the Chinese communities in Ghana will continue.
