1. Mabel Aku Banasseh

The former journalist who is into her own business now created a page called Mabel and friends and which was used to raise funds to support the less privileged and the poor in the society.

Mabel, through her Facebook page, has touched the lives of many people who were recommended to her through several people.

Donations were mostly in cash and some were also in the form of food items as well. For accountability sake, this human-angel shared on her page what exactly the funds were used for.

2. Derek Laryea and Selorm Branttie

It is obvious that those leading the fight against the coronavirus are the frontline health workers who put their lives at risk to save others yet, these frontline workers were lacking Personal Protective Equipment (PPE's) to protect themselves in the COVID-19 fight.

In view of this, Mr Derek Laryea who works with the Telecommunication Chamber, made an appeal on his Facebook page to solicit for funds to purchase these PPE's.

Fortunately, he was able to raise enough funds together with Vice-President of Imano Africa, Selorm Branttie to purchase some PPE's for health workers who called for them.

4. Afi Antonio

The Afi Antonio Foundation, which was founded by Afi Antonio, has distributed many food items to needy Ghanaians who have been affected by the lockdown exercise.

Gari, sugar, milk powder, sardine, milo, biscuits and water were all distributed to people on the street and also to some residents of the Tema New Town area.
