Beverage company, Charger Limited has supported SheRise Ghana Foundation with an amount of GH¢13,000.
The company extended this helping hand as part of its corporate social responsibility to the communities who patronize its products, keeping it in business.
The support is meant to aid the foundation’s menstrual hygiene campaign.
As part of efforts to eradicate period poverty and ensure schoolgirls do not stay out of the classroom when menstruating or engage in transactional sex to cater for their menstrual needs, SheRise Ghana has been supporting girls with sanitary products.
It has since its establishment weeks ago distributed sanitary products to over 300 schoolgirls and sensitized them on reproductive health.
It is in in the spirit of advancing this worthy cause that Charger Limited led by its CEO, Dr. Emmanuel Bortey Borketey made the donation.
The donation, Dr. Borketey explained, is to enable the Non-Profit Organization to reach out to as many needy girls as possible.
CEO of SheRise Ghana, Sarah Teni Babohima expressed gratitude to Dr. Borketey and the company for their kind gesture.
She assured that every penny of the donation will be put to judicious use.
“What he gave us can cater for about 1,000 packs of pad which is very massive to say the least. My team and I at SheRise Ghana are really grateful to this man for the generous donation,” she said.
“I want to assure him that this money will be used judiciously to help as many girls as we can. We are grateful and we pray the almighty enlarges his coast”.
