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.
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.
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.
Through our comprehensive vocational training program, 23 individuals have gained valuable skills across multiple trades including building construction, plumbing, mechanical fitting, tiling, electrical work, hairdressing, and dressmaking. From 9 electrical trainees to 4 aspiring dressmakers, our program has equipped these young people with practical skills that provide sustainable livelihoods.
In 2025, GHBC Foundation provided comprehensive family planning services and counseling to 135 women of reproductive age at no cost. These essential services included contraceptive education, reproductive health counseling, and access to family planning methods. Our initiative has empowered women to make informed decisions about their reproductive health while reducing maternal health risks.
Breaking down barriers to healthcare access, GHBC Foundation facilitated free National Health Insurance registration for over 200 less privileged young people and elderly community members. This initiative has provided these vulnerable populations with access to essential healthcare services, ensuring that financial constraints no longer prevent them from receiving medical care when needed.
Across multiple schools including Assakae Methodist JHS, Whindo Methodist JHS, and three Apremdo schools, we distributed 450 sanitary pads while providing comprehensive menstrual hygiene education. These programs have broken stigmas, increased school attendance, and empowered young girls with confidence and dignity during their formative years.
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%.
Going beyond basic healthcare, GHBC Foundation offers comprehensive health screenings including malaria testing with free antimalarial drugs and painkillers, blood group testing, blood sugar monitoring, and H-pylori testing. These preventive health services have enabled early detection of various conditions, ensuring timely treatment and preventing more serious health complications.
Our youth empowerment initiative provides Social Behaviour Change manuals to young adults while delivering targeted education on teenage pregnancy prevention. Through interactive workshops and educational materials, we're equipping the next generation with knowledge and tools to make informed decisions about their health, relationships, and futures, creating lasting positive change in communities across Ghana.
