Mr Kofi Mensah, father of a 12-year old boy who has benefited from the Vodafone Healthline has paid tribute to the telecommunication giant.
Vodafone Healthline, which was instituted in 2011 caters for the full cost of surgeries for many financially-challenged Ghanaians suffering from various health conditions, is also aimed at educating, informing and demystifying various myths on health related conditions.
In a release copied to Ghana News Agency (GNA), one of such beneficiaries is the family of Bismark Danfo, who was able to undergo bowel surgery to save him from the grip of death, Courtesy of Vodafone’s Healthline .
According to the release the family has expressed profound gratitude to Vodafone, adding that the surgery has restored their hope and given them normalcy in their daily lives.
“When Bismark was diagnosed with the condition, it was disheartening to watch him suffer and we lost all hope but God sent a helper through Vodafone.
“We are eternally grateful to Vodafone for restoring our hope and I pray that God will continue to bless them so that they can help more people in need,” said Mr Mensah.
Bismark, who aspires to be a pilot, said he was now able to go to school, socialize and play with his friends.
Before the surgery, 12 year-old Bismark was unable to pass stool for over three months causing him to have a bloated stomach, severe pains and sleepless nights.
The impact of Vodafone Ghana is seen through several aspects of the Ghanaian life beyond the provision of modern telecommunications services for the good of society and the economy.
The company continues to touch several lives through health and education, using its Foundation with its health portfolio, which contains a myriad of initiatives designed to bring relief and comfort to mostly deprived Ghanaians.
