Dear Family and Friends,

I hope this message finds you well. I'm reaching out to share a cause that has deeply touched my heart. During my recent visits to Ghana, the village of Brimsu Apewosika embraced me as one of their own, leaving a profound impact. Inspired by this experience, I've decided to spearhead the construction of a basic first aid center for orphaned children in the community. Brimsu Apewosika, located in Ghana's Central Region near Cape Coast, currently lacks nearby medical facilities. Orphaned children face serious health risks due to limited access to timely medical care, with the nearest facility over an hour's drive away.

This center will provide a safe haven where orphaned children can receive prompt and effective first aid care, promoting their health and well-being. I'm reaching out to my family, friends, neighbors and colleagues to help support this initiative. The Afrodat Children's Foundation, with the endorsement of Chief Nana Kwesi Kyei, will oversee the construction and operation of the center. Trained lay health workers in CPR and First Aid will staff the center, equipped with comprehensive first aid supplies to ensure immediate medical attention. The Afrodat Children's Foundation, a registered NGO in Ghana and the USA, cares for these children amidst challenging healthcare circumstances, underscoring the critical need for local health interventions.

My goal is to raise $15,000 of which 100% will go to the building fund. I am deeply committed to this cause, and your support would mean a lot, not only to me but also to the children of Brimsu Apewosika. Together, we can ensure every child receives the basic medical care they deserve.
