In a heartwarming display of generosity, Accra-based businessman and auto dealer, Horic Ampofo, has provided a significant boost to an elderly man who has been selflessly volunteering as a sweeper along the Ayi Mensah-Peduase road.
Mr. Ampofo first noticed the dedicated elderly citizen earlier this year during his daily commute and was deeply impressed by his commitment to keeping the area clean. Initially, he pledged a monthly allowance of GH¢1,000 as a token of his appreciation.
However, in a recent interaction, the elderly man humbly approached Mr. Ampofo with a different request: a one-time lump sum to kickstart a small business, aiming for a more sustainable and independent livelihood.
Moved by the volunteer’s entrepreneurial spirit and determination, Mr. Ampofo readily agreed. He generously donated a lump sum of GH¢15,000, which is expected to empower the elderly man to establish his own business and achieve financial independence.
This inspiring act of kindness has quickly garnered widespread praise from netizens, who are applauding Mr. Ampofo’s gesture. Many are also calling on others to support such public-spirited individuals who quietly contribute to the well-being of their communities. This story serves as a powerful reminder of the positive impact that individual generosity can have on a person’s life and the community at large.
