Businessman and philanthropist Alhaji Seidu Agongo will distribute 10,000 free sewing machines to women and young people across Ghana as part of an empowerment initiative. The program, implemented in collaboration with the National Entrepreneurship and Innovation Programme (NEIP), aims to equip beneficiaries with employable skills and improve their livelihoods.
The initiative targets school dropouts, widows, orphans and other disadvantaged individuals who face economic hardship and limited employment opportunities. Alhaji Agongo, founder of the collapsed Heritage Bank, traveled across the country and witnessed the struggles of many underprivileged families, inspiring him to provide support and tools to help them break free from poverty.
The sewing machine distribution is non-partisan and has clear guidelines to ensure transparency, fairness and equal access to the machines. This initiative is part of Alhaji Agongo's philanthropic interventions in education, healthcare and humanitarian assistance.
