SUNDA International, a Chinese company in Ghana, on Friday donated several quantities of their products as well as a bull to the Muslim community at the central mosque in Kumasi in the Ashanti Region.
The donation was made to coincide with the celebration by Muslims worldwide of Eid Al-Adha, the holiest festival in the Islamic calendar.
Eid Al-Adha, or the Festival of Sacrifice, is celebrated to commemorate the obedience of Ibrahim.
The yearly ritual is considered a time to think of others as well as to repent for sins committed in the past.
The Festival of Sacrifice marks the end of the Hajj pilgrimage, where Muslims descend on Mecca. Muslims will sacrifice goats, sheep, lambs, and cows to represent Ibrahim’s commitment to God, where Allah came to Ibrahim in a dream and asked him to sacrifice his son Isma’il as an act of obedience to God.
Participation in the sacrificial festival is mandatory for all obedient Muslims who can afford an animal.
It is also mandatory for people with money to give an amount to charity so less fortunate people can afford to join in on the celebration as well.
As part of their corporate social responsibility, SUNDA donated an assortment of their best brands, such as softcare sanitary pads, baby diaper wipes, and Kleensoft washing soap, as well as a bullock to the Kumasi Central Mosque to enhance the celebration of Eid Al-Adha.
King Edward of Hello FM in Kumasi, on behalf of SUNDA, donated the products to the Muslims in Kumasi.
He stated that the gesture is in line with SUNDA’s long-held tradition of keeping a bond with the poor communities who have always supported the company through their patronage.
King Edward also added, “SUNDA believes in the goodness of helping the poor in our society”.
Receiving the donation on behalf of the Muslim community, regional chief Imam praised SUNDA for their dedication and commitment to the Zongo communities and the poor in general throughout the years.
SUNDA International is a Chinese company in Ghana engaged in the manufacturing and distribution of household consumable products and detergents in Ghana and West Africa for over fifteen years. Their factories also directly employ over five thousand Ghanaians and many more indirectly. And they have donated for this festivity and many other charitable causes over the past several years.
