At the presentation organised by Charlotte’s Memorial Foundation, a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) based in Accra, Rev. Andrews advised children and young adults against ills in society and commended the Mother of the home, Ms. Emelia Turkson, for prioritising education for the children in her care.

The items included rice, milk, cooking oil, bathing soap, sugar, gari and washing powder. Presenting the items, the reverend minister stated that the donation was made possible by his close friends and family who greatly appreciated the current economic hardship and struggles that many Ghanaians were going through.

Earlier, Rev. Andrews and members of Charlotte's Memorial Foundation had lunch with the children and their caregivers.

He interacted with them and complimented the young adults among them, some of whom had just completed tertiary education, with two of them enlisted in the Armed Forces.
