In a decisive move to dismantle barriers to quality health services, the Fortitude Child Support Foundation, in strategic partnership with eye health organisation App4Aid, on Friday delivered life-changing medical care to 150 residents of Gomoah Fetteh during a comprehensive community health outreach.
The intervention, held with clinical support from Hope Christian Hospital and institutional backing from the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) and the Gomoah Fetteh Traditional Council, directly addressed two critical gaps in rural healthcare: untreated refractive error and lack of health insurance coverage.
Speaking at the outreach, Mrs Evelyn Duah, Executive Director of the Fortitude Child Support Foundation, said the exercise reflects the Foundation’s progressive commitment to health equity.
“At Fortitude, we believe every child and adult deserves access to quality healthcare without financial or geographic constraints. Today’s outreach at Gomoah Fetteh is a deliberate step toward removing barriers to sight and to health insurance.
“We are grateful to App4Aid, Hope Hospital, the NHIS, and the Traditional Council for turning this vision into tangible outcomes for 150 beneficiaries,” Mrs Duah stated. Source: Moderngh.com
