EL-Chris Truth Academy, a school for underprivileged children near New Dawhenya in the Ningo-Prampram District, has appealed for material and financial support to secure a parcel of land the school is located on.
Apostle Chris Mensah Kudzo, the School’s Director and Proprietor launching the appeal through the Ghana News Agency said, the management of the centre needs to pay GHC95,000.00, being the cost of the land or face eviction.
He said the date for the eviction ended in May 2021, but they had been given a grace period of up to the ending of July 2021, by the landowner.
He appealed to T. T. Brothers Limited, McDan Shipping Company, Electrochem Ghana Limited, and other companies within the Tema enclave to come to the aid of the school.
He said the school was established some six years ago to take care of the children from primary to the Junior High School level who were under-privileged within the new Dawhenya Community as a result they don’t pay fees.
Apostle Kudzo said the total school population stood at 319 who were all from underprivileged homes.
He said as part of efforts to secure the school’s property, EL-Chris Truth Academy would be organizing a fundraising event on July 24, 2021, at Tema Community 25.
He said money raised would be used to pay for the land and start construction of a new School Building.
He said the current school structure was made of woods and on the verge of collapse and it also lacks basic infrastructure such as chairs, tables, chalkboards washrooms, and a lot more.
He called on authorities and Non-Governmental Organization to come to the aid of the pupils who were the future leaders of the nation.
Apostle Kudzo, also a Pastor at the End Time Redemption Church, said he used proceeds from the church to take care of the children.
He said he had informed the Ningo-Prampram District Education Directorate to register the school but it was yet to consider his request.
