The Black Stars, under the leadership of Captain Jordan Ayew, visited the Dzorwulu Special School in Accra to demonstrate their commitment to social responsibility.
The team engaged meaningfully with the students and staff before heading to Luanda, where they’ll take on Angola in penultimate game of the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.
They expressed their support and compassion by donating food items, water, and a sum of money that remains undisclosed.
Speaking on behalf of the team, Jordan Ayew said: “On behalf of the Ghana Football Association, the Black Stars Technical team and my colleagues, we came here to spend time with you (inmates) and to offer our little support to you as part of our contribution to your growth.”
“For us, we believe that lending a hand of support is divine and a virtue that we all need to develop to help the underprivileged in society. We have been making a lot of donations and visitations before games but today, we thought it wise to come over here and support you”.
“We seek your prayers and support going into our crucial game against Angola on Friday’’ the Leicester City forward added.
In addition to Jordan, other players who made the trip included Kingsley Schindler, Lawrence Ati-Zigi, Abdul Fatawu Issahaku, Gideon Mensah, Ransford Yeboah Koningsdorffer, and Razak Simpson.
The players were accompanied by Team Manager Ameenu Shardow, Director of Communications Henry Asante Twum, and Director of the GFA Foundation Malcom Appeadu.
This visit demonstrates the Black Stars’ commitment to social responsibility and giving back to the community, making a positive impact beyond the football pitch.
