$28,000 GOAL MET! ✊✊

When we embarked on our @gofundme campaign to ‘Save 4 Hospitals’ nearly four weeks ago, we were certainly optimistic. But today as GMH sits atop our goal of $28,000 dollars raised, we stand graciously with a humble heart <3 THANK YOU!!

[Ghana Medical Help @GhanaMedHelp]

Our month-long @gofundme campaign is just $1,400 short of hitting our $28,000 GOAL!

With a week left in our campaign, our Exec Director Kelly Hadfield sends out a LAST CALL to help close the gap and SAVE 4 HOSPITALS in the upper regions of Ghana.

On this day in 1957, new light shone on a small nation on West Africa’s Gulf of Guinea. "GHANA" claimed independence from the UK and became Africa's FIRST sub-Saharan country to stand on its own merit. Today we celebrate Ghana Independence Day 61 years later 🇬🇭 #GhanaAt61
