President John Dramani Mahama with the Military High Command at the Jubilee House
The Military High Command, led by the Chief of Defence Staff, Lieutenant General William Agyapong, has donated a month’s salary to the Ghana Medical Trust Fund, popularly known as Mahama Cares.
This gesture was announced by the Minister in charge of Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, in a post shared on Friday, May 17, 2025.
He stated that the donation was made at a brief ceremony held at the Presidency in Accra.
“The Military High Command have just made a donation of one month salary to the Ghana Medical Trust Fund at a brief ceremony at the Presidency,” he stated.
The Mahama Cares initiative is focused on providing financial support to individuals living with chronic diseases nationwide.
It aims to cover treatment and medication for Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) that are currently not included in the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), thereby bridging a critical gap in healthcare coverage in the country.
Beyond direct medical support, the fund also plans to invest in vital health infrastructure, procure essential medical equipment, support specialist training, and fund research initiatives—all geared toward expanding access to quality healthcare.
