Some of the PWDs with their sheep and goats after the presentation ceremony<\/strong><\/p>\n

NINE PEOPLE With Disabilities (PWD) in the Afigya Kwabre North District,
\nof the Ashanti Region, have been presented with sheep and goats for rearing, to
\nmake profit and better their lives in the process.<\/p>\n

This was when the
\nAfigya Kwabre North District Assembly presented capital assets through the
\nDisability Common Fund to 72 people with disabilities, to give them financial
\ncushion to help improve their living standards.<\/p>\n

Aside the nine people
\nin the district that are now venturing into animal rearing, some of the PWDs
\nalso received free sewing machines, refrigerators and other start-up tools to
\nstart a new trade and become self-reliant, financially.<\/p>\n

During the presentation
\nceremony, some of the PWDs in the district also received cheques to pay their
\nschool fees and climb higher the academic ladder; others also took cash to pay
\nfor their medical bills.<\/p>\n

The District Chief
\nExecutive of the Afigya Kwabre North, Mr. Kwasi Karikari Achamfour, explained
\nthat the timely donation formed part of government\u2019s grand agenda and
\ncommitment to support the PWDs in the country.<\/p>\n

According to him,
\nthe country\u2019s developmental processes would be accelerated if everyone is given
\nthe chance to contribute his\/her quota, hence the government\u2019s resolve to make
\nPWDs economically active at all times.<\/p>\n

Mr. Achamfour said
\nthe Disability Fund Management Committee thoroughly vetted the number of
\napplicants and 72 were finally selected to benefit from the fund, adding that
\nthe activities of the beneficiaries would be monitored.<\/p>\n

Mrs. Paulina
\nAdantey, the acting President of the Disability Federation in Afigya Kwabre
\nNorth District, on behalf of the beneficiaries, commended government for having
\nthe welfare of the PWDs at heart, urging the beneficiaries to work hard.<\/p>\n
