Bosomtwe Assembly empowers over 30 PWDs with start-up kits, cash

The Bosomtwe District Assembly has distributed start-up kits and cash to more than 30 disabled individuals as part of the third tranche of the Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) Fund. The assembly conducted a ceremony at Jachie to deliver items such as deep freezers, fufu-pounding machines, industrial sewing machines, laptops, and other livelihood support equipment to chosen beneficiaries.

District Chief Executive Ing. Abdullah Hamidu emphasized the government's commitment to enhancing the living conditions of people with disabilities in the district and pledged that every disabled person in the area would have an opportunity to benefit from the PWDs Fund. He warned beneficiaries against selling the equipment provided to them and urged them to use the items to establish businesses that would meet their daily needs.

Beneficiaries expressed appreciation to the assembly for utilizing the PWDs Fund to improve their livelihoods and appealed for more support to ensure others who did not receive assistance this time also have an opportunity.
