Today, the District Four Sports Steering Committee on Thursday received a donation of four bags of rice, four sacks of sanitary pads, and LRD 30,000 from philanthropist Phephe Kadie Gorpulay and her son, Oscar Mendin, Jr., in support of the district's participation in the ongoing 2026 Nimba County Electoral District Peace Tournament.
The donation was officially presented on behalf of the donors to assist the committee in meeting some of the team's logistical and welfare needs as the competition continues.
As an additional show of encouragement, LRD 2,000 was also presented to each of the two teams as motivation ahead of their crucial second-round match against Electoral District Nine, scheduled for Friday.
Receiving the donation, Mr. Allen Sangar, Chairman of the District Four Sports Steering Committee expressed heartfelt appreciation to Madam Gorpulay and Mr. Mendin for their timely support and commitment to youth development through sports. They described the contribution as a significant boost to the team's morale and preparations.
The committee further called on other citizens, business owners, and well-wishers of District Four to emulate the generous gesture by supporting the team's campaign as it strives for success in the tournament.
