“For the spirit of Christmas fulfills the greatest hunger of mankind.”
It’s about that time of year when we reflect on everything that happened or did not happen and take stock of where we might be in relation to our goals, dreams, growth etc. If you’re one who makes new year resolutions – and even if you’re not – and still have “make a difference” on your list, then you might want to check out Project Drive-By – a non-profit initiative by LifestylzGH and feedForever which aims to spread the love and good cheer this Christmas season. Other sponsors include iStandAbove, TicketGhana.com, REACH Ghana, Heel the World, DailyGuideGhana.com.
The project is exactly what its name says: driving by less fortunate areas of Accra to provide a meal or two to an estimated 300-400 people, while sharing some good times and ushering in the new year as one. In the spirit of the season, I couldn’t have come up with a better idea. So, while you’re munching on all those tasty foods, opening presents, and sampling delicacies from the numerous Christmas hampers you might have gotten, take a day off and spread some love and good cheer. Event details below, Happy Holidays All!
