MISSIONARIES of Charity, a Catholic Home at Tema, has received donations of food and other items from various organisations and individuals for the up-keep of inmates who are orphans and AIDs patients .
The items include second hand clothing, bags of rice , toilet rolls, candies, cooking oil, fruit drinks, biscuits, fresh fruits, plastic buckets, bowls, among others.
The home caters for 30 adult AIDs patients, five children living with HIV and 15 orphans.
In her remarks after receiving items worth over GH¢1,500 from the Tema Oil Refinery Ladies Association (TORLA), Rev. Sister Nirola said benevolent societies and good-spirited people had supported the Home, in addition to the support from the mother organisation.
She commended those who extended support to the Home and said that confirmed the kind of services the Home rendered to society.
The President of the association, Mrs Victoria Ahenkorah, who led the group of ladies from TOR to do the presentation, said the donation was part of their social responsibility programme, through which they were able to put smiles on the faces of the less-privileged.
