• Stonebowy and daughter with staff of Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital
One of Ghana’s revered musical exports, Stonebwoy, on Friday, December 30, spent some time with children admitted to the Child Health/Paediatric Unit of the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital to celebrate Catherine Jidula, his daughter, who turned five years old.
Through his non-governmental charity organisation, The Livingstone Foundation (TLF), the internationally acclaimed musician, and Dr. Louisa Ansong-Satekla, his wife and renowned dental surgeon, used the occasion to pay the medical expenses for some patients as well as donate supplies worth thousands of cedis.
The items included, kids’ hygiene products which include soaps, diapers, wipes, packs of bottled water, drinks, hand sanitizers, boxes of biscuits, and other assorted items to the child health unit.
The foundation also hosted a dinner for Catherine Jidula, known as CJ, at the medical centre with kids, including their parents, in attendance.
The kids, who were thrilled to dine with Stonebwoy, Dr. Louisa and the entire staff from the charity, were also given special birthday gifts by CJ.
“We’re here to celebrate with the children here at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital because it’s my daughter’s 5th birthday,” Stonebwoy, founder of The Livingstone Foundation said.
Stonebwoy expressed his appreciation to the health professionals for their hard work and called for support to them from well-meaning Ghanaians.
Director of The Livingstone Foundation, Dr. Louisa Ansong-Satekla added, “We decided to come here and spend time with the kids because it’s the holiday season and it’s really unfortunate that they can’t celebrate with their families at home. So, we decided to come here and put some smiles on their faces, including their parents.”
The leadership of Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, Child Health/Paediatric Unit, expressed their sincere gratitude to the entire Livingstone Foundation for being thoughtful during the festive season.
