Fidelity Bank Ghana has stepped up its support for healthcare delivery with a GH¢200,000 cash donation to the Ghana Medical Trust Fund to help provide specialised treatment for vulnerable patients battling chronic non-communicable diseases.
The donation, presented on Tuesday, September 15, 2026, is part of the Bank’s corporate social responsibility efforts aimed at widening access to quality healthcare and supporting interventions that can save lives.
A delegation from Fidelity Bank Ghana, led by its Deputy Managing Director, Kwabena Boateng, visited the Fund to formally present the donation.
He was accompanied by John Paul Taabavi, Divisional Director, Corporate and Institutional Banking; Vincent Musah, Director, Public Sector Group; Joshua Elikplim Agbo, Senior Manager, Public Sector Group; Edwin Tei Mensah, Relationship Officer, Public Sector Group; and Ms. Marjorie Myers Quansah, CSR Coordinator.
‘Good health is the foundation of national development’
Speaking at the presentation, Mr. Boateng praised the Ghana Medical Trust Fund for its work in supporting Ghanaians who require specialized medical care, particularly those living with chronic non-communicable diseases.
He said Fidelity Bank was proud to support an institution whose interventions directly improve the lives of vulnerable people while contributing to the development of specialist healthcare capacity in the country.
“We are happy to support an institution which is providing financial assistance and specialist treatment for Ghanaians suffering from chronic non-communicable diseases and also training specialist health professionals,” he said.
Mr. Boateng said the donation reflected the Bank’s belief that access to quality healthcare was not only a social responsibility but also a critical ingredient for national development.
“This donation is not only a demonstration of the Bank’s strong corporate social responsibility agenda but also a reflection of its belief that good health is a foundation for national development,” he stated.
He further assured the Ghana Medical Trust Fund of Fidelity Bank’s continued support for initiatives aimed at strengthening healthcare delivery and improving outcomes for patients.
Donation comes at critical time
Receiving the donation, Administrator of the Ghana Medical Trust Fund, Adjoa Obuobia Darko-Opoku, expressed gratitude to Fidelity Bank Ghana for the timely intervention.
She said the GH¢200,000 would provide much-needed assistance in responding to the increasing burden of chronic non-communicable diseases and improve access to specialised medical care for vulnerable patients.
According to her, the growing demand for specialised healthcare requires strong collaboration between government and the private sector.
She therefore called for continued support from corporate institutions such as Fidelity Bank to complement government’s efforts to build a resilient and responsive healthcare system.
Ms. Darko-Opoku commended Fidelity Bank Ghana for the gesture and assured the Bank that its contribution would be put to its intended purpose.
She pledged that every contribution received by the Trust Fund would be channelled towards saving lives, supporting patients and creating lasting impact.
The GH¢200,000 donation adds to the growing role of private-sector partnerships in tackling Ghana’s healthcare challenges, particularly for patients whose access to specialised treatment is often constrained by financial difficulties.
