Karpowership Ghana Company Limited has made contribution of three hundred thousand Ghana Cedis (GHC300,000.00) to the Coronavirus National Trust Fund aimed at supporting efforts of the government to combat the spread of the Coronavirus disease in Ghana.

President Akufo – Addo over the weekend announced the setting up of the crucial trust fund that would be used to combat the outbreak of the disease here in Ghana. He named the board of trustees to be chaired by former Chief Justice Sophia Akufo and appealed to Ghanaians and institutions to support the fund.

Presenting the cheque on behalf of the company Corporate Communications Specialist Sandra Amarquaye said that Karpowership Ghana as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility projects, decided to contribute to the fund to support the government in catering for people whose lives would be negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Receiving the donation on behalf of the President, the Chief of Staff Honorable Akosua Frema Opare, thanked Karpowership Ghana for its timely contribution that would allow government to continually be ahead of the virus and not to chase it thereby enabling government to quickly bring the curve down. She implored other companies to emulate their gesture of pivotal support.
