The Roman Pontiff supports Ghana's Vulnerable Population Cope with COVID-19ContentAs part of Emergency Relief Programme to support vulnerable groups affected by Covid 19 outbreak, the head of the Roman Catholic Church, Pope Francis, through the Dicastery for promoting Integral Human Development allocated funds to Caritas Internationalis who in turn sent the funds to Caritas Ghana of the Ghana Catholic Bishops Conference to provide relief items to the most affected populations in four Archdioceses in Ghana. The Archdiocese of Kumasi is one of the beneficiaries of this donation.

As part of our resolve to ensure our children stay safe as they return to school, we at Serendipity distributed COVID 19 palliatives such as face masks and Face shields, Hand Sanitizers, temperature checker, liquid soaps as well as trainings on good hand washing practices to ensure as they reopen all protocols in staying safe are observed.

AS a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Safe-Child Advocacy (formerly Street Children Project) set out to engage with children in street situation, encouraging children to return home with the offer of sponsorship in skill training or formal education, depending on the choice of the individual child or young person. Since April 2020, Safe-Child has facilitated the return home of over 60 street connected children/young women from the street of Kumasi. From July till September 2020, Safe-Child has been enrolling the young girls assisted to quit the street into employable skill training of their choices after ensuring family reintegration of the young women. In the last few days, 30 young women who would have still been on the street were enrolled into different skill training programmes with training fees paid and sewing machines and other equipment provided to facilitate learning.

One spectacular activity carried out by Safe-Child Advocacy in the last few days, in the bid to respond to the current pandemic, was embaking on a night street work to give out sleeping items (mats and blankets) to homeless persons around the city of Kumasi. It was both an exciting and a moving experience. It brought tears to our eyes at the sufferings of people. At the same time we were glad for the means and the courage to reach out so close to persons in distressing situations.
