Ibrahim Oppong Kwarteng, Chief Executive Officer of the Crime Check Foundation, has announced that actress Nana Ama McBrown will fund the release of 47 prisoners as part of her 47th birthday celebration on August 15, 2024.
In a video that has gone viral, Mr. Kwarteng revealed, “Nana Ama McBrown will turn 47 on August 15, and she will be funding the release of 47 prison inmates. I know whoever is watching this will be impressed and will say a prayer for her.”
The video features Mr. Kwarteng visiting inmates at the Akuse Prison, one of the facilities that will benefit from McBrown’s generosity. He emphasized the significance of supporting prisoners, saying, “The Bible says we should draw near to the prisoners, be a source of encouragement to them, and share the good news, because being in prison is not a joke.”
McBrown had previously expressed her support for Kwarteng’s philanthropic efforts during his appearance on the ‘McBrown Kitchen’ show in February 2024. Moved by his work, McBrown pledged to contribute to his projects.
The Crime Check Foundation, under Ibrahim Oppong Kwarteng’s leadership, is known for its commitment to supporting prisoners and rehabilitating former inmates. The foundation provides educational opportunities, legal assistance, and emotional support to incarcerated individuals, aiming to aid their reintegration into society.
