In a scene of exceptional community spirit, the KGL Foundation has organised a free health screening and blood donation exercise in Dambai, the capital of the Oti Region.

A massive turnout marked the event, with residents from the Dambai community and students from the Dambai College of Education, with over 500 actively participating in the exercise.

The event underscores the Foundation’s mission to give back to people. There was a blood donation exercise also during the event, with blood received from donors deposited at the Worawora Government Hospital to equip the blood bank in the region.

The Programs Manager of KGL Foundation, Nii Ankonu Annorbah-Sarpei, during the event, reiterated the Foundation's commitment to improving the lives and well-being of the people in Dambai and Ghanaians as a whole. He underscored the need to regularly have health checkups and exercise to be fit, leading to a stronger and healthier nation.

The Foundation's dedication to social responsibility is evident in its commitment to organising these impactful health screening and blood donation exercises across the country. The KGL Foundation continues to champion positive change in Ghanaian communities through its various social development programs.

Annorbah-Sarpei emphasized that it is very expensive to undertake such free health screening exercises, considering the cost involved, and the Foundation does this for free to support individuals who cannot bear the cost of medical treatment.

The beneficiaries of the event had their vitals, such as blood pressure (BP), temperature/pulse, weight, and sugar level,s checked. They also went through eye examinations, getting counselling and education from doctors from the Worawora Government Hospital, all at no cost.

Beneficiaries were grateful to the KGL Foundation for such a wonderful free health screening and blood donation programme. Some noted the need to have this programme regularly since their busy schedules could not allow them to visit the health facilities to have their health status checked.
