“I urge corporate Ghana, civil society groups, churches, NGO’s, Fan Clubs and others to support us to bless others…that help is very crucial and can save someone from a bad situation” he stated.

Papa Richie disclosed that the Foundation is set to launch its Operation 50 Crutches And 20 Wheel Chairs Campaign in an effort to secure those walking aids for the people who need it.
