Receiving the items on behalf of management, the Deputy Registrar, Legal and Welfare Division, Ms. Lucy Diawuo thanked Vodafone Ghana Foundation (VGF) for their support to ease the burden of students especially in this era of Covid-19.

“The KNUST Food Bank was established to eradicate extreme hunger and ensure access to food by every needy student on campus”, she said.

She assured that the Foundation would not relent to offer support to students especially when it comes to the use of digital education.
