The Management of Latex Foam Mattress has donated 40 student mattresses and pillows worth GH¢1,000 to the Ghana Fire Service in Kumasi as part of its corporate responsibility.
The gesture has now become an annual event and it is to motivate personnel of the service in the Kumasi metropolis and its environs for them to respond to emergencies quickly.
The Human Resource Manager of Latex Foam, Mr Abass Kalimba Amankwah, who presented the items on behalf of the company commended personnel of the service in the metropolis for their commitment and dedication to work in spite of the numerous constraints.
He said Latex Foam recognised their contribution to sustainable national development and would, therefore continue to support them in diverse ways to enable them to discharge their responsibilities in a more effective way.
This, he said, would win them the confidence they deserved.
The Ashanti Regional Fire Officer, Mr Obeng B. Dwamena, who received the items on behalf of the service personnel praised the management of Latex Foam for recognising the contributions of the personnel.
He said the annual visits by Latex Foam " always bring the smiles to the personnel because with the mattresses, the personnel are able to relax and respond to all emergencies, even at short notice".
Mr Dwamena said the government was committed to providing the requisite facilities and equipment to the Ghana National Fire Service to enable it to meet its responsibilities.
He, however, stressed the need for institutions, organisations firms and individuals to also support the service in diverse ways to motivate the personnel to respond to emergencies.
