Two teenage benevolent organisations have jointly donated food items and provisions worth 600,000 cedis to the Nyohini orphanage.

The "We Love Kids Club of Tamale" and Kare Kids Klub of Accra whose members are aged between 10 and 12 years made the donation comprising a bag of sugar, two bags of maize and soap at the weekend.

Samar Ghanem, 10, deputy president of We Love Kids club, who handed over the items to the Home's supervisor, Miss Janet Yahaya, expressed the hope that the items would improve the lot of the unfortunate children.

Twelve years old Letletlo Gariba who represented Kare Kids Klub, said her organisation was moved by the plight of the inmates and pledged to make more donations in the future.

Miss Yahaya thanked the children for their kind gesture, saying that it was a refreshing development that the children at this tender age should be thinking of the welfare of others.
