The Ahafo Regional Minister, Charity Gardiner, has donated GH₵20,000 to support the surgery of 2-year-8-month-old Erica Kwarteng Bawuah, who has been diagnosed with a hole in the heart.
Erica is scheduled to undergo the life-saving surgery at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra.
Mrs. Gardiner presented a cheque to Erica’s parents in Goaso in response to an urgent appeal for assistance.

After meeting Erica in person, the Minister, in an interview with Adom News, said she was deeply moved and committed to helping save the child’s life.
Erica’s mother, Grace Bawuah, who could not hide her emotions, expressed immense gratitude to the Minister for the timely intervention, adding that financial constraints had delayed the surgery.
“We’ve watched our daughter suffer helplessly. This support is a miracle,” she said.
Mrs. Bawuah also appealed to the public to continue supporting them even after the surgery, as the child will require ongoing medication and care for full recovery.
