On 23rd July,2025, Nhyira Charities Foundation (NCF) undertook a significant outreach initiative at Dawu R/C Basic School as part of its mission to promote education and child welfare in underserved communities. The event was marked by a generous donation of educational and personal items to support pupils and improve their academic experience, alongside the official launch of the NCF Literacy Club aimed at enhancing reading and learning culture among the students.

The club will be operated in collaboration with the school’s administration and will be supported with reading materials, mentorship, and regular literacy activities.
