He maintained that the club exists in almost all universities across the country and can boast of having the largest membership as far as university organizations are concerned.<\/p>\n

Mr. Bangura noted that as one of the values of the club, which is to share whatever little they have with others, he admitted that they are giving out such a donation in January to help alleviate the challenges persons with disabilities undergo during this month and to let them know that CCG is always there to support them.He encouraged the membership of Help Empower Polio Persons Organization (HEPPO) to continue to strive to survive as giving up is not an option for them and they should do all they could to rise to the occasion.<\/p>\n
