Christmas is a season where love is felt and smiles are witnessed and this is the season, young entrepreneur and blogger, Kofi Cephas took it upon himself to paint a 6 classroom unit block of Anoe basic school, Kojokrom, Takoradi with the help of his friends. An initiative he started two years ago in a way to give his widow’s mite to Society.
The group known as ‘Cephas & Friends‘ painted a 6 classroom unit block of Anoe Basic school including the interior of the school. The event was dubbed ‘#LetThemSmileToo.’
A healthy environment promotes a healthy mind and these kids will smile seeing their school look beautiful upon their return from vacation.
Speaking to Kofi Cephas, he posited “You don’t have to make billions of dollars before you give back to society.” He continue to say “Charity is the pure love of Christ and everyone needs to smile on this earth and that’s what motivated the painting”. Speaking to Angela Forson the Program’s Coordinator, she made it clear that “Cephas & Friends are interested in doing sustainable projects that will give beneficiaries minimum of six (6) months of smiles”. She added that they are putting measures in place to make it a biannual activity.
Funds for the project were raised from organizer’s pockets and sales from T-shirts. See photos of the painted school below:
