Chemphe |
Popular
Ghanaian R&B singer, Chemphe has been added to Care International
Headquarters Wall of Fame in the USA as one of Africa’s most celebrated artistes.
He
is the first Pan-African musician to receive the recognition.
The
award-winning musician has for past few years been involved in charity
projects. He successfully launched his Campaign for Peace and Against Poverty project,
dubbed Double P project in Accra in 2012.
He
devoted most part of last year to pursue the projects, which made an impact in
the Central and Greater Accra regions of Ghana.
Hence
Care International in America has supported him in the outreach programme.
Care International is a global
confederation of 14 member organizations working together to end poverty.
In 2011, it worked in 84 countries,
supported 1,015 poverty-reduction projects to reach more than 122 million
people.
Chemphe’s
work falls within the project of Care International.
Now
he intends to provide basic facilities to “Hasuodzie” village, one of the
beneficiaries of the project.
He
believes efficient education and resource allocation are part of the most
strategic ways of curbing poverty in Africa.
Though
the project is currently funded by his record label (E-Jam Records), he intends
to collaborate with corporate bodies and media who are interested in joining
the campaign.
He
mentioned that though his “Global Citizen” song was getting good airplay in
Norway where it was released last year, Ghana would experience the real lyrics
of the song.
He
said the project song’s video would be launched this year though the radio
stations are permitted to play to promote the project.
