UNILEVER ASSISTS SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF (PAGE 111, JAN 23)

Unilever Ghana Limited has presented students of the Adjei Kojo State School for the Deaf with food items, detergents and cleaning agents to help with the upkeep of the pupils.
The items, worth GH¢500, were made up of Frytol cooking oil, Royco, rice, Key soap and Vim.
Receiving the items, the Headteacher, Mr Michael Cudjoe, said the school needed support from individuals and organisations to be able to care for this less fortunate students.
He explained that the government had been its major source of funding but there were sometimes delays in releasing funds, a situation which put both the teachers and the students in a difficult situation.
Mr Cudjoe thanked Unilever Ghana for being helpful to the school and its students, and appealed to it to continue with the gesture which had been on a yearly basis.
The Corporate Relations Manager of Unilever, Ms Bernice Natue, who presented the items on behalf of Unilever, promised that the company would continue to support the students.
She said discipline and punctuality constituted the hallmark of Unilever which had, for the past three years, set up a fund into which fines from latecomers at the workplace were deposited and used for charity.
Ms Natue said it was the wish of the management of Unilever to instil discipline through example in employees and through that impart it to the students who were expected to apply that in their everyday lives.
She said Unilever had been helping the school for the past three years and would continue to do so.
