Through his foundation, Depay has refurbished the school by building new toilets for the students. As per Ghana's Odana Network, this project is just a start for the Memphis Foundation.
They also aim to do similar work in Ghana, helping to develop more schools for the deaf and blind.
Depay's giving back didn't end there. The 29-year-old mad donations to a boxing gym in Accra for some renovations with the help of Dutch national teammate, Georginio Wijnaldum.
The Atleti star was seen interacting with children at the gym and took a group photo with the gym's boxes in front of a giant mural of him doing his trademark celebration in Dutch colours.
