The ever-prestigious Humanitarian Awards Ghana lived up to its billing and hype with attendance from high profile personalities in government, leadership, entertainment and philanthropy.

The event, which was held at the plush Labadi Beach Hotel to celebrate change makers, was a huge success.

Dr. Rev Lawrence Tetteh, Founder and President of Worldwide Miracle Outreach, delivered the keynote address, highlighting the need for humanitarianism and volunteering as a sure way to solving some of the world’s most pressing issues.

COVID-19 has been the biggest challenge to humanitarian operations around the world since the pandemic began. In spite of this, individuals and organizations have committed to serving society and restoring hope to our world.

Humanitarian Awards Global stands to celebrate and honor these extraordinary gifts the world has been blessed with. Awards were presented to organizations and individuals working to achieve the SDGs. Additionally, philanthropists and NGOs in the area of healthcare were honored, with special recognition for personalities that played vital roles in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic locally and internationally.

This year saw stellar performances from some of Ghana’s finest musicians and talents such as Akwaboah, Ceccy Twum, Jayana, Cwesi Oteng, Naana The Violinist, Rhymesonny, and Comedian Hogan, with hosts; Kwesi Akwatia and Priscila Addai Kwarteng, who had such amazing chemistry on stage.

Also in attendance was Mr. Tamas Feher, Hungary Ambassador to Ghana gracing the occasion as the Special Guest of Honor.

Dr. Rev. Lawrence Tetteh and Mr. David Bekesi, Deputy Director of the Embassy of Hungary and Mari Ellis, Managing Director of Euracare were also present as guests of honor. This year’s ceremony dubbed “celebrating change makers” has indeed thrown the spotlight on these exceptional people doing remarkably well to shine their light in the darkest of times.
