Accra, Dec. 8, GNA – Members of Rotary Club of Accra West on Wednesday organised a pre-Christmas party for disabled children from four institutions in Accra. They were drawn from the Osu Children’s Home, New Horizon School, Cantonments, Dzorwulu Special School and Mampong-Akwapim School for the Deaf.
The inmates served with meals and drinks, were presented with Christmas parcels including Christmas hats as music took the background. Ms Mavis Kitcher, Editor of Junior Graphic, said the annual event was to show love to such special people and offered an opportunity for the Rotary club to give back to society. She encouraged the children study hard. Ms Kitcher urged them to see their “weaknesses and shortfalls” as unique opportunities to exhibit their special gifts in various areas including the arts and handicrafts to serve the needs of society. Ms Kitcher said in the era of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), there was no limit to the opportunities available therefore, they need to make use of such opportunities to improve their situation which was critical to their future. She said though their current situation might make them frustrated they needed to make the best out of their situation to create a brighter future for themselves. 8 Dec. 10
