Visionary Norman Foundation Donates to Kyeaboso D/A Basic School in the Ashanti Region

 

The Visionary Norman foundation, as part of its commitment to providing basic essential needs and support to less privileged societies within the country, has again made a community outreach aimed at providing the pupils and habitants of the Kyeaboso community with a number of educational materials and an eye screening section.

 

Among many items donated were learning materials such as school bags, exercise books, pens & pencils, shoes and uniforms.

The materials were given out with the hope of meeting pressing needs of pupils in the community who might be facing difficulties in acquiring such essential materials due to the current economic hardships in the country or for other unknow reasons.

Volunteers and team members were tasked to carefully distribute the items equally among the pupils ensuring that each pupil received what is needed most per their situations and in the right sizes and numbers.

This was to make for adequate use and fair distribution of the resources provided whilst ensuring the beneficiaries are excited and content with what was given to each of them.

As captured, the headmaster of Kyeaboso D/A Basic School, Mr. Gabriel Dwomah emphasized how timely the resources had come and also continued to thank the sponsors and donors of the benevolent gesture stating the long-lasting impact on the community’s education drive.

“These supplies will make a world of difference for many of our students who previously lacked basic items,” he was quoted saying.

 

“The smiles on their faces made every effort worthwhile,” remarked also a volunteer.

As evidently seen, most of the pupils who had come to school in torn clothes or shoes etc. went back home with new shoes, uniforms and others.

It is believed that these materials would go a long way to motivate the pupils to study hard and perform well in their academics as well as ease a bit of pressure on their parents who are mostly small-scale farmers. Most of the pupils expressed their appreciation to the organization.

Whilst engaging the pupils with the donations and some interactive sessions, the Visionary Norman Foundation also extended its` outreach to the health and wellness of the pupils by a means of an eye screening exercise.

The team included an optometrist who was available to conduct the screening tests.

With the help of other volunteers and staff, the team was able to diagnose and recommend treatment options for pupils who were probably affected with problems of sight and vision.

This was to ensure that the pupils could be free from potential health issues associated with the eyes and vison so as there is no hindrance to their academic feats.

 

The founder and President of the Visionary Norman Foundation, Mr. Abraham Norman Nortey in his talk, addressed the need for providing the educational and health needs of the young ones echoing how important this is to the future of the community and the country at large.

“We believe that providing Children with the right educational tools and ensuring their health is paramount to their success. We are committed to making sure that no child is left behind,” he emphasized.

 The gesture by the foundation was well acknowledged and applauded by the whole community as the School Inspection Support Officer (SISO) for the Dompoase North Circuit of the Adansi North District of the Ashanti Region who was present at the donations made commendatory remarks.

He mentioned “This intervention addresses two of the most pressing needs in our schools-access to learning materials and healthcare. The foundation has done an exemplary job.

The Visionary Norman Foundation, a not for profit non-governmental organization since its` establishment has been embarking on similar activities across the country as part of its mission to provide support and relief to deprived societies and individuals within the country touching lives and bringing hope to the hopeless.
