Ghana Medical Trust Fund urges Ghanaians abroad to become healthcare ambassadors

The Ghana Medical Trust Fund (GMTF) has urged Ghanaians living abroad to become healthcare ambassadors for the organization's mission to provide life-changing medical support. Adjoa Obuobia Darko-Opoku, the Administrator of GMTF, made a passionate appeal during her visit to Nashville, Tennessee, highlighting the Fund's financial assistance for Ghanaians requiring expensive specialized medical treatment.

The GMTF aims to mobilize international support to expand its impact, and the Administrator emphasized the importance of collective ownership and engagement of the Ghanaian diaspora. She called on Ghanaians in the diaspora to leverage their networks, professional connections, and influence to open doors to American hospitals, medical institutions, research centers, investors, foundations, and philanthropists.

Ms Darko-Opoku stressed that Ghanaians abroad can make a significant difference by connecting Ghana's healthcare needs with expertise, resources, and opportunities available in their host countries. Her message conveyed that the fight against chronic diseases and the high cost of specialized healthcare should be a collaborative effort, not solely reliant on government resources.

Ghanaians in Nashville and across the diaspora are urged to use their connections, expertise, and goodwill to help save lives back home.
