The Grace World Foundation, a foreign-based charitable non governmental organization is advocating for national policy to prioritize child welfare services.
According to the foundation, nations could not have responsible, patriotic and reliable future leaders if child welfare services were not given much attention as part of national development policies.
Reverend Charles Sarkodie, the founder of the Foundation told Newsmen in an interview over the weekend in Sunyani.
This was on the sideline of the foundation’s donations to the Hannuka and Compassion Is Love In Action (CILIA) Children’s Homes last Saturday.
The foundation donated Food, drinks, biscuits, clothes and undisclosed cash amount to support the feeding and up keeping of the homes.
According to Rev. Sarkodie, the donation was part of the foundation’s 10 years anniversary activities.
The foundation, as part of its anniversary also donated a package of assorted items to Bishop Boniface Outreach Ministries of the Ghana Assemblies of God in Accra for their rural Mission work.
On behalf of the Ministry, Bishop Boniface expressed gratitude to Grace World foundation for the kind support towards the rural Mission exercise.
The foundation visited some Hospitals in the Bono region as part of its activities to check up on babies admitted at the Intensive Care Units and also ascertain what the foundation could do to support the health care services of the babies.
Rev. Sarkodie stated that the government, parents, families and the society owe the responsibility to strengthened child welfare systems and policies as well as have keen interest in the cognitive development of children in national development plans and programs.
There was also the greatest need to invest and conduct thorough research in child welfare systems to ensure a solid national child wellbeing structured policy, Rev. Sarkodie emphasized.
