The Coalition of Volunteering Organizations Ghana (COVOG), on Friday, June 4, 2021, signed a partnership agreement with Ghanaian singer-songwriter, Kobby Prairie.
The partnership agreement, which was signed in Accra, Ghana, is to help advocate for community building through volunteerism.
According to Kobby Prairie, his desire is to see a vocationally and, or academically empowered and thriving Ghanaian youth.
He said this objective can be achieved if children, including the less privileged, are positively engaged and given the needed opportunities.
He thus said working with COVOG to serve Ghanaian communities as an advocate for volunteerism is a worthwhile endeavour.
“Capacity Building projects such as vocational training for the unemployed and academically deprived individuals in societies is one of many volunteering initiatives to be pursued by COVOG in the second half of 2021,” he added.
COVOG is a Non-profit Organization established with the purpose of promoting, advocating for and giving recognition to various individuals and registered organizations interested and involved in promoting national volunteering and volunteering activities.
“The development of our communities and the nation, as a whole, is not the responsibility of the government only, but a joint effort between the government and the citizenry, and hence volunteering activities must be for all well-meaning Ghanaians,” Kobby Prairie added.
