William Dominic Awumey, Sales Executive of Webie Biscuits, speaking to Channel One News praised the initiative, commending the organizers and his company’s management for their support.
He emphasised that M4 Foods’ partnership with the Literacy Challenge demonstrates its commitment to corporate social responsibility and investing in Ghana’s future generations.
Mr Awumey encouraged other institutions and brands to follow suit, saying, “We thought this is a programme that a company like ours would be more than happy to partner with, and then we also feel it’s always nice to be part of an organisation or a programme that seeks to help in the building of our future leaders and so, yes, the programme as we came was very successful.”
“We thank M4 Foods management, from the general manager to the sales marketing manager for their help and their initiative to partner such a program here. We also thank Citi FM and then Channel One TV for also bringing up such a programme or educated programme. We are grateful for the participation. So, we also encourage other institutions, brands such as ours, to also try and help in the whole programme to, as I said earlier, to help build our future leaders.”
