The Sarkodie Foundation has donated essential supplies to mothers receiving care at the mother and Baby Unit of the Manhyia District Hospital in Kumasi to help ease their financial burden.
The donation forms part of the foundation’s Community Impact Initiative ahead of the Rapperholic 2026 concert in Kumasi.
The supplies are expected to support mothers who struggle to afford basic necessities such as sanitary pads, tissue and other essential items while receiving treatment at the hospital.
Health workers at the facility say some families face difficulties paying both their medical bills and the cost of basic supplies. In some cases, nurses and doctors use their own money to help patients who cannot afford these necessities.
Speaking after the donation, the hospital’s Health Service Administrator, Eric Dua Boateng, thanked Sarkodie and his team for their support.
He appealed to corporate institutions, individuals and other organisations to assist the hospital in caring for patients who cannot afford medical bills and other essential needs.
Mr Boateng said support from the public would help the hospital meet the needs of vulnerable patients and make their stay at the facility more comfortable.
Meanwhile, Ethan Lawrence, a member of the Rapperholic team, said the Kumasi project was designed to combine entertainment with community service.
He explained that the initiative was part of efforts to make a positive difference in the lives of people, beyond organising musical concerts.
Mr Lawrence also announced that preparations for the main Rapperholic 2026 concert were complete, with the event scheduled for Saturday.
The donation highlights the importance of community support in healthcare and shows how individuals, organisations and entertainers can help improve the lives of people facing financial difficulties.
