The Ninani Group of Companies has donated assorted items to support Tamale-based Shekina Clinic, which caters for the needs of the vulnerable in society.
The facility, which was built by the late Dr. David Abdulai, a celebrated philanthropist, also provided meals to the needy aside medical care. The medical doctor dedicated his life to supporting the poor and the homeless; until he passed away in October after battling thyroid cancer.
The items included cooking oil, syringes, muliti-vitamins, tins of mackerel and cassava dough among others.
Donating the items, Mrs. Olivia Cudjoe, Corporate Social Responsibility head at Ninani Group, said the group believes in giving.
“We believe that as individuals and as a group, we have been immensely blessed and it is important that others benefit from what we have received. As such, every year, for the last 4 years since we’ve been in business, we have made the effort to identify a cause we feel will benefit from our support.”
Joel Nettey, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Ninani Group, called on all to support the needy in society; a gesture which according to him, cuts across the two known faiths of Islam and Christianity.
He said the group would continue to support the needy and encouraged individuals as well as corporate bodies to consider helping the needy.
Staff of the various companies of the Ninani group also pledged various sums to support the clinic and staff.
The Shekinah Clinic was established by the late Dr. David Abdulai to provide free medical care to the needy and mental patients, including a popular food-on-wheels programme.
A representative of Shekinah Clinic, Seiba Issifu,who received the items from Ninani, expressed gratitude to the Group for the gesture.
