In anticipation of the 2025 International Day of the Girl Child, the Ashiaman Area Women’s Ministry of The Church of Pentecost has donated vocational equipment to the church’s National Women’s Ministry Directorate. The celebration is scheduled for October 11 at Essam-Debiso in the Western North Region.
Led by Deaconess Evelyn Asare, the Area Leader, and her assistant, they presented five hair dryers and ten sewing machines to aid skill development initiatives that foster self-reliance and economic empowerment among girls.
Speaking at a brief presentation ceremony, Deaconess Asare, affirmed the ministry’s commitment to nurturing potential, especially in underserved communities.
She stated: “This is more than a donation; it’s an investment in our daughters’ future.”
The National Directorate expressed deep appreciation, describing the gesture as timely and impactful. The equipment will be used during vocational training sessions planned for the event.
Observed globally on October 11, the International Day of the Girl Child promotes girls’ rights and well-being, addressing challenges in education, health, and safety. This year’s theme, “Skills for a Brighter Tomorrow,” highlights the importance of equipping girls with practical tools for sustainable livelihoods—a vision the Ashiaman Area Women’s Ministry actively supports.
