Creating Healthier Generations

As a single mother with limited healthcare access, Ama Serwaa had never had a proper wellness screening until attending our medical outreach in Tarkwa. When our team discovered early signs of hypertension, we provided immediate education and referral for treatment. Today, Ama is successfully managing her health and educating other women in her community about the importance of regular screenings.

After losing both parents at a young age, Kwabena Mensah's education seemed impossible despite his academic excellence. Our foundation provided him with a scholarship and enrolled him in our vocational training program in Sekondi. Today, Kwabena is a certified electrician with a stable income who mentors other youth and volunteers at our health outreach programs.

Struggling with reproductive health issues and lacking proper education, Mariam Fuseini attended our women's health empowerment workshop in Apremdo. After receiving free screening and comprehensive education on menstrual hygiene and family planning, Mariam now confidently educates her daughters and has established a women's support network that has reached over 100 women in her community.

Joseph Tetteh from Effiakuma participated in our blood donation drive out of curiosity. When he learned his donation helped save a child's life, he was transformed. Now a regular donor and volunteer coordinator, Joseph's advocacy has recruited over 50 new donors, supporting our partnership with Effia Nkwanta Regional Hospital Blood Bank and saving countless pregnant women in critical need.

After attending our HIV/AIDS awareness campaign in Takoradi, Akosua Nyarko got tested for the first time and received proper counseling. Empowered by knowledge, she overcame stigma to become a peer advocate in her community. Through her work with our foundation, Akosua has facilitated testing for over 200 people and established Takoradi's first youth-led sexual health support group.

Since our first needs assessment in March 2020, Assakae has transformed into a model for sustainable community health. Working with local leaders and healthcare providers, we've established a network of trained volunteers, implemented early detection systems for diabetes and hypertension, and created a community-owned health education program that has reduced preventable disease rates by 40%.
