In all Young People We Care (YPWC), was able to mobilize about 13,118 young people and other interested people like teachers, heads of institutions, agencies and organizations as well as religious leaders. Among notable events that took place include a church service at the St. Peters Cathedral Church in Kumasi, Schools mobilization in Central Region, Upper West and Upper East and spending some time with Orphans at the Kumasi Children’s Home.
