To climax World Autism acceptance month, Ghanaian reggae-dancehall and afrodancehall pioneer, Stonebwoy and his wife, Dr. Louisa who also doubles as the executive director at “The Livingstone Foundation,” made a heartwarming surprise visit to the autistic fan, Holyfield Odorba at Hopesetters Autism Center.
Holyfield Odorba, who has extraordinary vocal, performance, and drawing skills, captured the interest of Stonebwoy and his foundation by posting viral videos of himself singing and performing the dancehall icon’s songs.
The afrodancehall legend gave Holyfield a number of gifts via his charitable foundation, The Livingstone Foundation. These featured care gifts from Ghandour Cosmetics (The GC Brand) containing necessities and consoling delicacies, as well as packs of Bags of Lilo Rice, Verna Mineral Water, Pepsodent goods, McBerry Biscuits, and Bigoo range of drinks.
In addition, Holyfield received a cash gift and Tecno-branded souvenirs such as headsets and Bluetooth speakers, aimed at enhancing his creative abilities.
Stonebwoy expressed his admiration for Holyfield, stating, “It’s truly inspiring to witness the depth of talent and passion that emanates from this special young boy. His profound connection to my music is not only humbling but serves as a poignant reminder of the universal language music embodies. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to extend my support to him in any capacity possible.”
Stonebwoy has invested time, money, and resources to philanthropic initiatives over the years. He has been actively involved in several initiatives through The Livingstone Foundation, most notably the BHIM Workshop, where participants receive training in small-scale farming, food and agro-processing, fashion creation, and entrepreneurship development.
Last year, he commissioned four mechanized bore projects in four deprived communities in the Western Region.
