T.T. Brothers donate to SOS Village

Tema, Jan. 2, GNA - T.T. Brothers Limited, sole agents for Parmalat South Africa, on Thursday, donated food items and learning materials worth GH¢8,000 to the SOS Village at Tema. The items included 15 bags of rice, a quantity of fruit drinks, cooking oil and five boxes of exercise books.

Mr Isaac Tetteh, Chief Executive Officer of the company, who made the donation on behalf of the company said the donation formed part of a 10-year agreement signed between the company and the Village. He said it was also the policy of the company to ensure that the inmates enjoy the yuletide. Mr Tetteh made a special appeal to the political parties, especially the NPP and the NDC to think about the young in the society to ensure that peace prevailed in the country.

Mr Isaac Ackon, Director of the SOS Village, who received the items on behalf of the Village, thanked the company for their gesture and expressed the hope that the donation would be used judiciously. The inmates were later entertained during a party held for them.
