In a move to strengthen the Ghanaian economy , H.E John Dramani Mahama has launched the Ghana Medical Trust Fund also known as Mahama care to provide financial support to Ghanaians suffering from chronic illness such as cancer, stroke and among several diseases.

The event took place at the medical centre of University of Ghana on April 29, 2025 , Tuesday.

“I want to encourage corporate Ghana, businesses, the mines, the banks, and all the other companies, that this Ghana Medical Trust Fund, is coming to your clients who save their monies in your banks or do business with you. Some of them are even your own staff.

So as part of your Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), if you give anything, consider that you are giving to your own staff or customers. So, I would like to encourage all corporations in Ghana, both private and public, to at the end of the year, donate some portion of their annual CSR to Ghana Medical Fund because it is going to do a lot of good to the country,” he stated.

Leadership by example, H. E J.D Mahama has pledged to donate six months of his salary to support the healthcare in Ghana through the Ghana Medical Trust Fund.
