The team will arrive in Ghana on Monday July 15 and leave on July 21, a day after the finals of the Miss Ghana pageant at the Banquet Hall.
This is barely a year after Miss World 2011, Ivian Sarcos and the Miss World team visited Ghana to support the Miss Ghana Foudation’s charity projects.
The team is visiting again to support the Miss Ghana Foundation’s humanitarian activities in Northern Ghana, which includes the construction of boreholes at the Nabuli and Leili witch camps.
They will also lend a hand to the Foundation’s infant and maternal mortality projects nationwide, visiting the fourth floor of the maternity block of the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, which the Miss Ghana Foundation is raising funds to renovate.
According to the Press Relations Officer for Miss Ghana, Mr Obed Boafo, Miss Morley and her team will meet with the Northern Regional Minister, the Tamale Chief and also visit the Tamale Children’s Home.
The delegation is also expected to pay a courtesy call on President John Mahama.
“And to crown what is expected to be an exciting one-week visit, the Miss World team will attend the finals of the Miss Ghana 2013 pageant as well as the Beauty With a Purpose Charity Ball to raise funds for the refurbishment of the fourth floor of the maternity block in Korle Bu,” Mr Boafo said in a statement to the press.
