Fathers Home Care Ministries, haven and home to 40 children aged 10 months to 12 years, strives: \u201cTo transform the lives of children and young people who pass through our doors to become independent and useful to themselves and the society through Christian-based training.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Having approached the orphanage to offer assistance in latter 2020, General Manager Alex Booth met with the Home\u2019s board to see how they could best support the children and orphanage. The importance of education was key to these discussions, and it was agreed that Bosch Rexroth Ghana would provide much-needed items to assist the children with their schooling requirements.<\/p>\n<p>Each child received a brand new school bag, new pair of shoes and set of clothing. \u201cWhile education is pivotal, we also wanted to help the children enjoy childhood as much as possible,\u201d says Booth. To this end, Bosch Rexroth Ghana completely renovated the children\u2019s playground, which was in much need of attention.<\/p>\n<p>Leisure activities important too<br \/>The swing, a see-saw and merry-go-round were rebuilt, two large sandboxes constructed and toys provided for all children. With the help of Bosch Rexroth Ghana employees, all items were painted and installed in a shaded area, rather than their previous sun-exposed positioning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis playground goes hand-in-hand with the children\u2019s development and brings much joy to them, as it did to all orphanage personnel on the day of the gifting,\u201d said a spokesperson for Fathers Home Care Ministries.<\/p>\n<p>The children are cared for by five single parents, all of whom reside permanently at the orphanage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have taken the decision to support the orphanage as part of our ongoing CSI service to Takoradi communities,\u201d Booth says. \u201cWe will meet with the directors annually to determine the children\u2019s educational, clothing and leisure requirements.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Additional corporate social investment<br \/>The Ghanaian Bosch Rexroth subsidiary has also been allocated funding by the Primavera Foundation in Germany, an organisation of Bosch employees who mainly support various projects pertaining to children worldwide. \u201cThe funding is being used to help complete a partially built house on the orphanage premises,\u201d Booth explains. The house, with re-construction having commenced early in March 2021, will accommodate 16 children once complete.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Bosch Rexroth South Africa Group of Companies remains dedicated to giving back to the communities in which we operate,\u201d said Bosch Rexroth SA Group Marketing Manager Gillian Allin. \u201cWe would like to thank and congratulate Bosch Rexroth Ghana for living our #Values and helping others to #KeepMoving.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bosch Rexroth Ghana, a member of the Bosch Rexroth South Africa Group of Companies, is located at No. 3 Airport Road, Airforce, Takoradi, Ghana.
