Misean Cara support during COVID-19.

With financial support from Misean Cara the Brothers in Ghana are in the front line protecting their wider communities from COVID-19. Br Godfrey is the project manager. They are educating the community on COVID -19 and how best to protect themselves from it. They are supplying, sanitisers, hand wash and PPE to front line workers. Due to the lock down in the country many are not working and have little money for food. The Brothers are also distributing food to alleviate the effects of this problem.
