Gospel musician, Mary Agyemang, has been named brand ambassador for Juvenile Reform Foundation (JRF)-Ghana, a non-governmental organisation focused on stemming juvenile crime and violence in Ghana.
The ‘change over’ hitmaker, who had her musical breakthrough in 2009 will as part of her new role organise charity concerts locally and internationally, as well as spearhead upcoming programmes of the Foundation.
Proceeds from the concert will be used to cater for the formal education, technical and vocational training, and the general welfare of juvenile offenders (released and incarcerated) and vulnerable children in Ghana.
Mary Agyemang and JRF-Ghana are expected to visit religious organisations, schools and communities to educate the youth on delinquency and its consequences.
She will sensitize parents on child development and parenting through various seminars and outreach programmes.
“It’s such a great feeling to be working with (JRF)-Ghana to fulfill its vision of helping children in conflict with the law and child victims,” the 2017 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards nominee said. Executive Director of JRF-Ghana, Geoffrey Chaucer Ofori said Mary will play a vital role in the Foundation’s fight against juvenile delinquency in the country.
