Ministry of Health commends partners for supporting MahamaCares

The Ministry of Health has expressed its profound appreciation to Telecel Ghana, Alive Industries, East Cantonment Pharmacy, and KMI Energies for their generous contributions to the Ghana Medical Trust Fund (MahamaCares), an initiative aimed at providing financial assistance to individuals living with chronic diseases across the country.

Telecel Ghana has pledged to support the initiative by equipping three (3) healthcare centers with HPV testing kits, digital colposcopes, and biopsy instruments.

The donation, which will also cover operational costs for these facilities over two years, is expected to enable the screening of at least 5,000 women in the first year, offering free diagnostic services to underserved communities.

Additionally, Alive Industries has donated ₵500,000.00, East Cantonment Pharmacy has contributed ₵50,000.00, and KMI Energies has supported the initiative with ₵5,000.00. 

These contributions are expected to significantly strengthen the MahamaCares initiative and help expand its reach and impact nationwide.

The Minister of Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, praised the efforts of the contributing organizations and emphasized the importance of public-private partnerships in improving national health outcomes.
