The total cost of the package is GHC700 (Seven Hundred Ghana Cedis).
In a thoughtful move, the executive members and board of CoDA, in consultation with teachers, decided to replace the uniform component with textbooks. This decision was made to provide students with valuable reading materials that will not only benefit them but also their peers and family members. The textbooks are intended to be shared and passed on to others when the beneficiaries complete their basic education level.
Mr. Thomas More, Vice Chairperson of the board, and Mr. Tibil Victor More, Executive Director of CoDA, addressed the beneficiaries and their guardians, emphasizing the importance of utilizing the support received annually to make a positive impact in their community. Parents were also urged to take full responsibility for their children’s education and well-being, particularly in preventing teenage pregnancy.
The beneficiaries and parents were overjoyed and expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the donors(https://mondo.org.ee/en/) for their generosity and support. They were thrilled to receive the educational materials and thanked CoDA for their dedication to empowering young minds in the Nabdam district. The atmosphere was filled with excitement and appreciation as the beneficiaries and their guardians celebrated the success of the program.
The program is yielding outstanding results, with beneficiaries completing various levels of education with excellent results, a testament to the positive impact of CoDA’s support.
