Other items include rackets, table tennis balls, school learning materials, school bags, shoes and water bottles.
The donation was done through Hagie Gai Drammeh Foundation for the Physically Challenged, a partner to the donor.
The items are expected to be distributed by the Hagie Gai Drammeh Foundation for the Physically Challenged to beneficiary schools across regions in the country.
The Krish Roopnarine family and his close associates stand as a rare and powerful testament to human compassion in action.
Their contribution to the transformative nationwide table tennis initiative led by Hagie Gai Drammeh Foundation for the Physically Challenged goes far beyond conventional philanthropy.
The items were crafted by the Krish Roopnarine.
Through time, effort and unwavering commitment, Krish Roopnarine, alongside his family and trusted associates, worked tirelessly to produce the materials that would eventually bring joy, inclusion and opportunity to physically challenged individuals across The Gambia.
The remarkable act creating table tennis equipment with their bare hands symbolizes something far greater than the objects themselves, but reflects a philosophy rooted in sincerity.
Their associates, equally committed to the vision, played an indispensable role throughout the process.
When the equipment finally reached Gambian soil and would be unveil during the landmark event upon arrival of the items in The Gambia on April 23, 2026.
For many physically challenged individuals, access to adaptive sports remains limited.
Yet through the efforts of Krish Roopnarine and his family, barriers are being dismantled not only physically but psychologically.
They helped to create a space where ability is celebrated, confidence is restored, and community is strengthened.
It is believed that their legacy within this initiative would endure, not just in the games played or the equipment distributed, but in the lives touched and the inspiration sparked.
The most powerful change comes not from what is handed over but from what is built, piece by piece, with one’s own hands.
