Dear Supporters,

The Georgina Y Baidoo Foundation would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for your continued support. Your generosity has made a significant impact on the lives of children battling cancer in Ghana and has enabled us to continue our mission of improving treatment for these children. Through your generosity, in 2022, the GYBF was able to help 211 children receive diagnostic testing for cancer, and 100 children receive treatment for cancer.

As we move forward, we remain committed to improving the lives of children fighting cancer in Ghana and would like to encourage you to continue your support. This year, our goal is to expand our efforts to include providing local accommodation and transportation for patients and families who have difficulty paying for these services when bringing their children for cancer treatments. A donation of $10 will cover a one night stay at a local hotel near the pediatric oncology unit. A donation of $30 will cover the cost of transportation from nearby communities. Every contribution, no matter the size, will help make a difference.

Thank you again for your unwavering support!

Together, we can make a meaningful impact on the lives of children with cancer in Ghana.

Hi Everyone!

We realize it’s been awhile since we last posted, but know that we’ve been very active behind the scenes.

At the 2022 Christmas gathering for the children who attend our partner clinic at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) in Kumasi, Ghana, the Georgina Y Baidoo Foundation (GYBF) was awarded a certificate of appreciation for its work with cancer kids in Ghana. Mr Charles Baidoo (middle), our local rep in Kumasi, is seen here receiving the certificate of appreciation on behalf of the

GYBF from Dr Ernest Kwarko, the board chairman of the national health insurance authority, with Dr Vivian Paintsil (the pediatric oncologist at KATH) looking on.

The Georgina Y Baidoo Foundation would like to wish all of our supporters a very Merry Christmas and best wishes for a happy & healthy New Year  in 2020!

We celebrated our 5 year anniversary as a registered charity this year and have so much to be grateful for. Because of your support, our little charity has been able to accomplish much and help so many children in need who are battling cancer in Ghana.  In the past 5 years, through our fundraising activities and your generous donations, we’ve raised $24,500!  This has helped to treat 956 children with cancer at the KATH pediatric oncology clinic in Kumasi, Ghana over this period!  Thank you for your continued support! We look forward to doing more in the years ahead!

We are excited to share that we’ve just made our first donation of $2000 to KATH to fund diagnostics, which will help with early detection of paediatric cancers.
