On the 25th Day of March 2017, Planet range of drinks through Twellium Foundation brought back hope to 18 female students of Labone Senior High School.

Their school and registration fees were paid in full by Planet and Twellium Foundation. They received free drinks and souvenirs from Planet as part of the package.

Planet Flavoured Drinks is one of the many drinks produced by Twellium Industrial Company Limited.

Planet Drink is a non-alcoholic beverage which was introduced into the Ghanaian market in February 2014 and comes in a wide range of flavors, namely Orange, Apple, Pineapple, Cocktail, Lemon and Grenadine.

When you have the spirit of embracing success but you are so handicapped and restricted.

When you have the willingness to achieve goals set straight before you but cannot reach them.

This is the story of 18 female students of Labone Senior High School who had lost all hopes.

These girls were about missing a great opportunity in life by skipping their West African Senior Secondary School Certificate Examinations (WASSCE). They were about to be sent out home due to non-payment of their school and examination registration fees.

How we heard about the story.

The Lotus Events, headed by Ms. Elizabeth Victoria Amanor who was touched by the story of these girls contacted Twellium Foundation to support the initiative. This initiative is dubbed 3E SUMMIT FOR GIRLS with the core themes Education, Entrepreneurship and Etiquette.

Then we came in

Twellium Foundation has been set up by Twellium Industrial Company Limited to give back to society. Under this foundation, some homeless and jobless now have homes and jobs. Hope is restored to the hopeless and life becomes worth living. Under the Twellium Foundation so far, 2 beggars on the streets of Accra who had no place of abode, no means of livelihood and had lost all hope have had their lives changed for better through the Verna Changing Lives Program.

Twellium Foundation keeps supporting and transforming the lives of people in diverse ways.

These are our supposed future leaders: ministers, chief executives of great institutions and other great personalities. We could not let this opportunity pass them by without intervening.

These 18 girls can now be in their right state of mind to study for their examinations and pass with distinction thanks to Planet drinks and Twellium Foundation. A light so bright has shone, a smile so wide on their faces to forge ahead. This success was achieved in collaboration with The Lotus Events, who also granted the girls a free event decor master. All 230 final years female students benefited from the master class and were all refreshed with Planet Flavored Drinks.
