One year after its establishment, the fund sponsored the first cohort of brain aneurysm coiling surgeries at Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, covering costs for six patients. Neurosurgeon Dr. Hadi Mohammed Abdallah noted that the fund also supports treatments for brain tumors to prevent blindness or death. To mark its first anniversary, the GMTF also launched a ‘Day of Giving’ initiative, donating diagnostic and emergency equipment to nine hospitals across various regions, including Volta, Greater Accra, Ashanti, Western North, Savannah, and Upper West. The donated items, such as ultrasound machines, oxygen concentrators, and X-ray machines, are intended to reduce equipment gaps and improve emergency response capabilities at regional and district levels. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-02: Ghana Medical Trust Fund donates equipment to nine hospitals The Ghana Medical Trust Fund celebrated its first anniversary by donating ultrasound machines, X-ray equipment, and oxygen plants to nine hospitals across Ghana to improve diagnostic and emergency care. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/ghana-medical-trust-fund-donates-equipment-to-nine-hospitals ### 2026-09-28: Ghana Medical Trust Fund sponsors first public brain aneurysm surgeries The Ghana Medical Trust Fund has sponsored the first group of brain aneurysm coiling surgeries at Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, providing critical financial support for high-cost neurological procedures. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/ghana-medical-trust-fund-sponsors-first-public-brain-aneurysm-surgeries --- Cite as: Ghana Medical Trust Fund operations and initiatives.
