For his part, the President of Ghana Paralympic Committee, Samson Deen applauded the young philanthropist for supporting Paralympics especially at a time the whole world is facing difficulties.
He appealed to the government to support the Ghana Paralympic Committee so that those who are in other regions can also be covered.
“We are very grateful to Arnav for the support. Limitless Ghana Foundation has been supporting us from 2019. We appointed Arnav for his philanthropic projects and he was to represent Ghana as an Ambassador to help us raise funds to support our athletes, unfortunately the COVID-19 pandemic has kept most of us out of business and we are all home doing nothing,”he said.
He continued that,”Currently most of us are not working now, because per directives, they are not supposed to expose themselves to the public. So we are much grateful to Limitless.”

“We use this opportunity to seek the support of government as well so that we can reach out to not only to our brothers in Accra and Kumasi but across the country. We have several athletes in Sunyani, Takoradi, Northern Region, Tamale Specifically, so these donations are good but if we can get more, it will be appreciable for the athletes to manage it for the mean time and for a longer time,” he added.
