Support Mayekoo Foundation – Transform Healthcare for the People of Vakpo, Ghana

Today, we are mobilizing support for the Vakpo Medical Center, a lifeline for over 12,000 people in the Volta Region of Ghana. This rural facility, struggling under outdated infrastructure and severe resource shortages, is in desperate need of critical upgrades to provide quality, accessible healthcare to those who need it most.

The challenges facing Vakpo’s mothers, newborns, and families are dire. Maternity risks are dangerously high, neonatal care is inadequate, and women’s health services are critically under-resourced. In a region where many cannot afford private healthcare or travel long distances for treatment, this medical center is their only hope.

With your help, we can transform this struggling clinic into a beacon of hope and healing for generations to come.

The Challenge

• Outdated Equipment & Facilities – Patients receive care in aging, under-equipped spaces that lack basic monitoring devices, incubators, and wheelchairs.
• Lack of Clean Water – Without access to clean drinking water, patients face increased risks of infection and disease.
• Maternal & Infant Health Crisis – The maternity ward is too small, under-resourced, and lacks proper delivery rooms, making childbirth dangerous for mothers and newborns.
• Limited Medical Supplies & Medicines – Chronic shortages in essential medicines and supplies make it impossible to provide adequate care for patients suffering from preventable illnesses.
• Women’s Health & Hygiene Needs – Limited feminine hygiene supplies and reproductive health education further compound the health challenges women face.

Without intervention, these systemic issues will continue to endanger the lives of thousands.

Why It Matters

Supporting the Vakpo Medical Center isn’t just about fixing a building—it’s about saving lives.

✅ Safer Births – Upgrading maternity services means healthier mothers and newborns who receive the care they deserve.
✅ Stronger Infant Care – Providing NICU incubators ensures premature babies get a fighting chance at survival.
✅ Access to Clean Water – Reducing waterborne diseases leads to a healthier, more resilient community.
✅ Sustained Medical Support – Supplying the facility with critical medicines and medical equipment allows healthcare workers to treat patients effectively.
✅ Empowering Women’s Health – Feminine hygiene support and reproductive education help women lead healthier, more dignified lives.

Together, we can eliminate preventable health risks and create a medical facility that truly serves its community.
