Founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of As I Grow, a non-profit and humanitarian organisation, Mr. Isaac Nana Debrah Bekoe, has appealed to government and individuals to aid a patient suffering from eye tumour to undergo eye surgery.
He made the plea during his organisation’s recent visit to a village called Abenawia in Akuapem North municipality of the Eastern region where he donated items worth GHC6000 to the people in the community.
Speaking in an interview with Today, Nana Debrah Bekoe lamented the painful situation where he met a young woman who gave her name as Mary Dogbe on his way to Abenawia village suffering from an eye tumour.
That, according to him, compelled him to call on philanthropists and corporate organisations to come to the aid of the lady.
His first contact with the woman, he said, touched his heart particularly when he reliased that she was a mother of three, and was seeking for help to enable her undergo surgery.
Subsequently, he said the chief and the elders of the village implored him, [Isaac Debrah Bekoe], to support the medical bills of the woman.
“I agreed to solicit funds as well as charged media personnel in Ghana in partnership with As I Grow Foundation to lend a hand by using their platforms to publish it to trigger various donors to support by any means possible.
“It is my outfit’s responsibility as an NGO to help those in need as I have been doing in the past few years. I will be very grateful if everybody can contribute a quota to help relieve Mary Dogbe off her suffering once and for all which is for her to undergo a successful surgery at the end of the day,” he further appealed.
