In a demonstration of their commitment to social responsibility and community support, Melcom and the Melcom Care Foundation have donated a variety of essential food items and 1,000 iftar meals to the National Chief Imam of Ghana, Sheikh Osman Nuhu Sharubutu. This initiative aims to support the Muslim community during the holy month of Ramadan, particularly those in need.
Leading the donation on behalf of Melcom were key executives, including Madam Sonya Sadhwani (Executive Director), Mr. Ashok Nair (Chief Operating Officer), Mr. Zahed Siddiqui (Chief Information Officer), and Nana Opoku A.kyei (Head of Marketing). Their presence underscored the company’s ongoing dedication to community engagement and corporate social responsibility.

In addition to these food items, Melcom also provided 1,000 iftar meals to support the National Chief Imam’s efforts in assisting the underprivileged during Ramadan. Iftar, the meal consumed after sunset to break the daily fast, holds deep significance in the Muslim faith, symbolizing unity, gratitude, and reflection.
Expressing his appreciation, the National Chief Imam extended his profound gratitude to Melcom and the Melcom Care Foundation for their generosity. He commended their dedication to social welfare and urged other institutions to follow their example in reaching out to the less privileged during Ramadan.
Melcom’s continuous efforts in corporate social responsibility remain commendable, particularly in supporting religious and cultural events. Their dedication to uplifting communities through such charitable initiatives reflects the company’s longstanding commitment to making a meaningful impact in Ghanaian society.
