South Suntreso SDA Church donates to KATH, spends GHS50,000 on patients

South Suntreso Seventh-Day Adventist Church has paid an amount of GHs18,927 to absorb the hospital bills of 11 patients at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH).

The leadership of the Church has also donated assorted fruits, diapers and pampers to each patient at KATH.

The act of generosity was witnessed on Saturday, 4th November, 2023 at the forecourt of the hospital.

Madam Dorcas Asare, Young Women's Coordinator for South Suntreso SDA Church presented the items to the Deputy Chief Nursing Officer for KATH, Madam Marian Osei Bonsu.

Ahead of the donation at KATH, the Church also carried out similar activities at Kwadaso, Ahinsan and Bremang SDA hospitals.

The total cost of all items donated plus the payment of the medical expenses of patients was given as GHS50,000.

The intervention is the initiative of the young women's wing of the South Suntreso SDA Church, falling under a project dubbed: "Jesus In Bed".

Receiving the items, the Chief Nursing Officer for KATH thanked the leadership of the Church for the support.

She also called on philanthropists and institutions to extend similar assistance to them since most patients are hard-pressed financially.
