“It’s about creating a space where people feel seen, supported, and celebrated—especially during such a meaningful time of year.”
The Foundation received support from one of its funded partners, Muslim Family Counselling Services, who assisted with planning and logistics for the event.
Related to this initiative, the KGL Foundation also extended its support to the Muslim community in Accra.
A cash donation was made to the National Chief Imam to support Eid celebrations, demonstrating the Foundation’s national commitment to religious harmony and inclusion.
In addition, the Foundation donated essential food items and toiletries to the Rahmah Orphanage, also located in Accra, to ensure the children enjoyed the Eid season with dignity and care.
