Jovago joined the Citi FM Foundation on a visit to the Baptist School Complex & Orphanage (BASCO) to donate cash and items.
The gesture was part of Jovago’s corporate social responsibility and falls directly in line with the company’s core values. This year marked the tenth year in which Citi FM have donated to this orphanage and a special solar plant was unveiled as part of the company’s effort to make life comfortable for the children there.
Items donated to the children included bags of rice and gari, used clothing, food items, candy, biscuits, toiletries, and bags of water, among others.

An undisclosed amount of money was also donated to the orphans to help make their lives comfortable while grooming them to become very important people.
The Managing Director of Jovago Ghana - Claire Staal said: "It gives us great joy to be a part of such life touching activities. It is important to make profit as a business but we believe it is also very important to share what you get with people who do not have the means to provide for themselves. We stand for hope, love and we are always finding ways to contribute our quota in the quest to help these young children become great people in the near future. We wish to commend Citi FM on this great initiative and hope to partner with them on subsequent donations and projects."
