Bringing Christmas Spirit to the Children’s Ward
Huawei continued to share the love with children on admission at the Greater Accra Regional Hospital by donating various therapy books and tools to the Speech Therapy department of the pediatric ward while presenting various Christmas gifts to the children.
Over 20 Huawei staff volunteered during this exercise to present gifts and interact with the children on Christmas eve.
Speaking at the donation ceremony at the Greater Accra Regional Hospital, Mr. Adam M. Hardi, Head of Administration, Greater Accra Regional Hospital also received the items worth GHC 24,000 as he thanked Huawei for their support hinting that the hospital would be greatly honored if the exercise becomes routine.
He mentioned that the items donated to stock the hospital’s children library would be very beneficial as the children have run out playing materials.
“Indeed we are grateful to have an organization like Huawei think about our children and embark on this generous exercise. Mostly when children visit hospitals, they are privileged to go back with some toys and other learning materials. However, our case has been different as we run out of them. Huawei’s call is a step in the right direction and we wish to see more from Huawei and other organizations. On behalf of the entire management, I would like to say thank you and may the Almighty God reimburse you,” Mr. Hardi said.
