Mfantsipim @150: MOBA’96 donates to Cape coast hospital pre-term babies unit
The Child Health Unit of the Cape coast Teaching Hospital has received a boost in healthcare delivery after the 1996 Old Boys year group of Mfantsipim School made a kind donation to the hospital.
In 1996, the Old Boys of Mfantsipim School made a generous donation to the Child Health Unit of the Cape coast Teaching Hospital. Their contribution of GH¢22,000, combined with an incubator, aims to bolster healthcare services for pre-term babies, who require specialized medical care and attention during their early stages of life.
The donation is part of the Old Boys' broader commitment to societal responsibility and support for healthcare delivery, particularly for vulnerable newborns. The cash donation, along with the incubator, will help improve the care and support available to pre-term babies at the hospital, encouraging awareness and reducing stigma associated with premature births.
President of MOBA'96, Kwesi Enchill, emphasized that this gesture aligns with the Mfantsipim School's Sesquicentennial celebrations, aiming to support healthcare delivery in a region significant to their formative years. The Head of the Child Health Unit, Dr. Yemah Mariama Bukari, expressed gratitude for the MOBA'96's gesture, stating that it will significantly enhance the quality of care for pre-term babies and expand awareness to reach more communities.
The hospital's 25-bed capacity neonatal intensive care unit is predominantly occupied by pre-term infants, making this contribution a vital intervention to meet their needs.
