Posted on 4th December, 2020

About Seventy-five Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) within the Wassa Amenfi East Municipality have received equipment and cash support from the Assembly's Common Fund.

They received equipment ranging from sewing machines, spraying machines, over lock machine, fufu pounding machine, refrigerators and deep freezers, tricycle, roofing sheets, fertilizer, weedicides and insecticides among others.

The beneficiaries were selected and supported based on their business proposals received and vetted by a committee responsible for the disbursement of the fund at the Assembly.

The Municipal Chief Executive, Hon. Helena Appiah in her remarks admonished the beneficiaries to make better use of the items so that they can improve their living conditions in the Municipality.

She also advised them not perceive their condition as a barrier, but should rather focus on how they can make significant contribution to their families, Municipality and the country at large.
