Their presence underscored the collective belief that compassion, especially in moments of celebration, is a shared responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Nii Annorbah-Sarpei, the Programmes Manager, speaking on behalf of the CEO of the KGL Foundation said, \u201cWe believe in uplifting Ghanaians wherever we may find ourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said these moments, whether during Eid in Kumasi or Easter in New Takoradi allowed them to connect with real people, listen to their stories, and stand with them in love and solidarity.<\/p>\n<p>From the early morning hours, community members began gathering at Esoro Park, creating a festive buzz even before the first meals were served.<\/p>\n<p>Laughter filled the space as children played freely, and elders shared conversations over plates of traditional food.<\/p>\n<p>He said the event was more than a food bank, it became a safe, joyful space for families to come together.<\/p>\n<p>He said the KGL Foundation continued to show its commitment to creating meaningful, on-the-ground impact across the country, with health, youth empowerment, and community wellbeing at the heart of its work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Ghana<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
