A Non Governmental Organization called the Nor Foundation has presented a large quantity of learning materials to 44 needy but brilliant pupils in the Chanshegu community of the Kumbungu district in the Northern Region.<\/p>\n

The founder, Nura Mohammed who has dual citizenship in Ghana and Benin said the intervention sought to encourage the beneficiaries to focus on their studies.
\n\u201cI didn\u2019t have it very easy growing up: I have been like them before, you go to school they will sack you for school fees: Even though the kids need more than we are giving them but at least we trying.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to her, the North Foundation in collaboration with its development partners has planned to rollout the project in more deprived communities in the region.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI am looking at leaving Accra and doing same in other remote areas in the north.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nura Mohammed said her organization intended expanding education infrastructure in some identified deprived communities in the region.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will need a lot of support because in this community it won\u2019t be bad if there is another school here because they have only one block which is From JHS one to JHS three.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe primary and the pre-school they have to go to other communities and that is not encouraging because if the distance from here to where they go to school is far they won\u2019t go: so we are looking at starting a project like a school.\u201d<\/p>\n

One of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary hopefuls in the Kumbungu constituency, Abdallah Baba Ibrahim commended the NGO for the support.<\/p>\n

He appealed to other NGO\u2019s and philanthropists to support the area\u2019s education sector.<\/p>\n
