The hampers, containing essential items such as newborn clothing, detergents, toys, blankets, and personal care products, were presented to mothers at the various hospitals, including Korle Bu Teaching Hospital in the Greater Accra Region, Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital in the Ashanti Region, the Tamale Teaching Hospital in the Northern Region, Wiawso Government Hospital in the Western North Region, and the Dambai Hospital in the Oti Region.

The recipients expressed their gratitude to the MTN Ghana Foundation for the kind gesture. One of them, Madam Sylvia Essuman said the hamper will help ease the financial burden of the mothers. Another beneficiary, Madam Gifty Amoah described the donation as a pleasant surprise. “We were not expecting this, but we are very happy, thank you MTN”, she said.

Madam Victoria Jamoo, Senior Midwife at Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, observed that the donation would go a long way in supporting new mothers who often struggle to afford essential baby items.

Speaking during the presentation in Accra, Mr. Samuel Bartels, representing the Chief Corporate Services and Sustainability Officer for MTN Ghana said, "This initiative is our way of sharing in the joy of new mothers and congratulating them on the arrival of their babies. We believe that these little ones will grow up to achieve greatness, and we are excited to be a part of their journey.”
