Accra, Jan. 23, GNA
– The Management of Huawei Technologies Ghana has made donations to the Ghana
Police Service and the Greater Accra Regional Hospital in Accra.
The donation is to
show appreciation and their contributions to communities within which they
operate.
The Company as part
of its Corporate Social Responsibility supported 100 Police Officers of the
Cantonment Police Station with hampers, gallons of Oil and bags of rice among
others for their security support throughout 2019.
Mrs Zhou Jiang Ling,
the PR Manager of Hwauei, presenting the items said it was to show their
appreciation to the Cantonment Divisional Headquarters, which also happens to
house the Police Station within the vicinity of the company’s Country
Headquarters for their security support.
She recounted an
experience of being able to walk from her apartment to the office safely in the
middle of the night without fear thanks to the Ghana Police Service for a good
work done.
She said Huawei
would continue to contribute its quota to support the police service and
expressed the hope that the encounter would mark the beginning of a greater
bond between Huawei and the Ghana Police Service.
Chief Superintendent
William Asante, the Acting Divisional Commander of the Cantonments Divisional
Headquarters, receiving the items on behalf of the Division, thanked Huawei for
the kind gesture and concern, stating that their effort was much appreciated.
Commissioner of
Police Samuel Monney, the Director General/ Technical applauded the Police
Service for making Ghana a safe and secured abode for citizens, investors and
non-Ghanaians.
“The police can only
be efficient and effective with the help of the public and called on all and
sundry to support and cooperate with the police in this regard,” he added.
He assured
Management of Huawei and the public that, the Ghana Police Service would
continue to discharge its mandate of professionalism as required by law and as
such the public would count on the police for their support and safety.
At the Greater Accra
Regional Hospital, Management of Huawei donated various therapy books and tools
to the Speech Therapy Department of the Pediatric Ward, while presenting
various gifts to the children.
Mr. Adam M. Hardi,
Head of Administration, Greater Accra Regional Hospital, who received the items
worth GHC24,000.00 thanked Management of Huawei for their support, hinting that
the Hospital would be greatly honored if the exercise became routine.
He said the items
donated to stock the Hospital’s Children Library would be very beneficial as
the children have run out playing materials.
“Indeed we are
grateful to have an organization like Huawei think about our children and
embark on this generous exercise. Mostly when children visit hospitals, they
are privileged to go back with some toys and other learning materials,” he
added.
He, however, said
their case has been different as the Hospital haD run out of these tools,
indicating that Huawei’s call was a step in the right direction and appealed to
see more from Huawei and other organizations.
The PR Manager said
the donation formed part of Huawei’s commitment to giving back to the society
in which it operates.
“Huawei is committed
to giving back to society and supporting our own. Our vision is to enrich life
through communications and this reflects in our commercial and corporate social
responsibility initiatives,” she said.
She said improved
health care delivery was also integral to their vision as a result, she
expressed the hope that their little effort would be appreciated as they look
forward to bigger collaborations.
