“The Club added a special flair to the event and showcased the spirit of community involvement and philanthropy. We on behalf of the party made generous donations, further demonstrating our dedication to supporting local communities and cultural initiatives.
“I pledge to sponsor a Street Artist Night as part of the Akwambo Festival. This sponsorship will include a performance by the renowned artiste Patapaa and a few others, adding excitement and entertainment to the festival lineup.
