Priscilla Nana Ama Samson, a 17-year-old student with cerebral palsy, has returned to senior high school after a remarkable outpouring of support from the Ghanaian public. The young girl's mother had been unable to afford the necessary items listed on Priscilla's school prospectus, leaving her uncertain about whether she would be able to resume her education.
JoyNews brought Priscilla's story to light, igniting a wave of generosity from listeners and members of the public. Collectively, they have raised an impressive GH¢40,000 to help Priscilla meet her educational needs and enable her to return to the classroom. This financial support has not only allowed Priscilla to join her peers but also provided her mother with much-needed relief from the financial burdens of sending her daughter to school.
With this newfound opportunity, Priscilla can now focus on continuing her education alongside her classmates, marking a significant shift from the uncertainty she faced just a short time ago. The family has expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the JoyNews audience and all those who generously contributed to making Priscilla's return to school a reality.
