Ghana
has a population of over 30
million and the Ashanti Region is the second largest populated region
with
3million population. And the region have identified as the second
hotspots of
people affected with the coronavirus, even though, the government of
Ghana has layed down strenuous measures through the distribution of
medical suppliers,
PPEs, nose marks among others to the various hospitals, but same is not
done to individuals especially in the deprive communities.
The country has extended its partial lockdown tightens restriction of people’s movement. And in regards to
this further partial lock down, mass rush for protective materials are on high
demand compelling the prices of alcohol based hand sanitizers to shot up
compelling deprive communities to live by prayers due to financial impediments.
Having identified these challenge
confronting people living in the deprive communities, we write this as a
proposal seeking for financial support from corporate institutions,
individuals, and non-governmental organisations to enable us support the people
of Atwima Kwanwoma District in the Ashanti Regional capital of Ghana.
