April 2023  - 54 Gold Gives Back

As a socially responsible company,  54 Gold is always on the lookout for an organization to support, so it came naturally to look for ways to give back to the community where we source our raw supplies of Shea Butter for our Sister brand Honam Naturals in Tamale Ghana. My heart has always been in Tamale, Ghana, and maybe it is because I was born there and do business there as well.


Every year we choose a charity or an organization to give back to. We had researched to find a suitable organization to give back to. We came across Dr, Akis Afoko who had so much love for the community and had set up a private practice aside from his main duties in the main Government hospital to provide extra health care. The new private clinic specializes in Urology; he had also stated Women kept showing up with their children for health care and he sometimes had to turn them away as he did not have the resources to help. There was an instance where a woman showed up with abdominal pain and after examination, he discovered she was ready to give birth but had never received any care.


This incident had him decide to set up a new wing to provide health care to the women in the community. Dr. Afoko rans both clinics with his own funds and donations from friends and families, both clinic’s. This is a clinic that could make a change in people’s lives if given the right tools to help with the community.


This organization was a perfect match and we gladly partnered to help support the with his good deed. We traveled to Tamale last month and visited the almost completed women’s wing and donated.


The clinic could do with medical supplies as well as monetary funds. If you wish to partner with the clinic, please reach out and we will provide you with more details.
