The young philanthropist mentioned Khloe Kares Foundation’s

genuine interest in the implementation of a Library and a children’s park projects in Kumasi relying on its range of skills, resources and experience to help build a park for children in honour of Her Majesty Lady Julia and thus make Lady Julia’s Library and Children Park in Kumasi a reality.
