The owner of fashion label SmockyWorld which launched some odd 4/5 years ago is now one of the most prominent brands in the country.

Whilst most took to the festive season to celebrate at parties, Gertrude Kunde-Kwallinjam took to her brand and her employees to plan the feeding of 500 plus children, but to her surprise it was much more than that. Gertrude-Kunde-Kwallinjam She took to social media to broadcast the following message “Last year, we (Smockyworld) solely donated to the Sheikina Mental Hospital and I remember afterwards, many people came asking why it wasn’t announced for them to come support.

So this year, a simple post of Feeding 100 Streetkids was made and to my amazement, friends contacted me from all corners of the globe to help make it happen. A head count of partners who supported in various ways at the end totaled 44 individuals / businesses!! (Not kidding) Together, we fed over 4,000 kids – far in excess of what was originally thought of and these were made up of Street kids and children from three orphanages within the Northern Region. Yes! I am amazed too…and it didn’t end there, many people have contacted me and asked that I promise to add them in subsequent years 😃. We just pray for good health and life…” Share FacebookTwitterPinterestLinkedinWhatsappTelegramEmail Nana Tamakloe Founder of FashionGHANA.com and Accra Fashion Week.
