He, therefore, appealed to the public to support the school to pay the bill, since efforts to get the responsible authorities to pay the bill had not yielded any fruit.
The Men’s Ministry of the GEC put smiles on the faces of pupils of the school with the presentation of items including bags of rice, cartons of soap, tins of tomato paste and toilet roll.
The Coordinator of the ministry, Rev. Dr Alex K. Dzameshie, who presented the items, said whoever met the needs of the under-privileged in society was fulfilling scriptures.
He asserted that God had plans for every child, adding: “Whatever we do for these children, we do it for God. We want to support you to take care of these children. It is our way of showing love, which is a commandment from Christ.
“It is our prayer that God will continue to give you the strength and zeal to take care of them. Whatever we do on earth, we will be accountable to God someday, so we must excel at what we do.”
Rev. Dr Dzameshie urged the teachers not to think that their work was a degraded one but rather be inspired because they were contributing significantly to the lives of the children.
Mr Gborgla, receiving the donation, expressed appreciation to members of the association for the support.
“We are grateful that you remembered us. But, like Oliver Twist, we would ask for more of these visits,” he said.
Established in 1995, the school has a population of 100 pupils who have conditions including Down’s syndrome and low IQ.
