The Founder of Purple Angels Kids Foundation, Naa Dzama, has thrown more light on one of her favorite initiatives of her foundation, dubbed, ‘Make a wish’.
Explaining what actually the initiative is about, she stated that, it focuses on children who are terminally ill or who have some form of congenital diseases.
Speaking to Eunice Tornyi on e.tv Ghana’s ‘African Women’s Voices’, she said, “These are kids whose days are basically numbered and we’re hoping they would survive. But unfortunately, a lot of them don’t so what we do is to grant one wish; that is the thing that is most dearest to them and the one thing that they’ve always wanted but for some reason they’ve not gotten.”
She noted that in most cases, for some it was a laptop for others, it was a bicycle and a birthday party for others etc.
“So after the requests are made, we try to grant these wishes for them and the rationale behind it is that we’re inspiring them and giving them something tangible. Something you’ll have to be a child to understand,” she added.
The media personality expressed that their aim is to give the children a fighting chance and that positive mentally so they do what they need to do to stay alive.
“In the process they have lost some but even in those cases we know that we made them smile before they passed,” she emphasized.
