The Minister for the Interior, Muntaka Mubarak Mohammed, has led a high-powered delegation from the security services and other institutions under his ministry to donate over GH¢1 million to the MahamaCares Medical Trust Fund.
The presentation, held at the Presidency, was marked by a short but poignant ceremony symbolising solidarity and shared national responsibility.
Muntaka explained that the contribution emerged from a collective resolve during a recent internal meeting of the Ministry. Despite limited resources and operational constraints, personnel across various security agencies came together to make meaningful donations from their own ranks.
“Our support for MahamaCares is grounded in a shared belief in its mission — to provide medical assistance, restore hope, and rebuild trust through structured, compassionate healthcare support,” the Interior Minister said.
The MahamaCares Medical Trust Fund, championed by President John Dramani Mahama, is a nationwide intervention designed to offer essential medical aid to the most vulnerable citizens, ensuring they receive lifesaving healthcare when they need it most.
President Mahama, who received the cheque on behalf of the Fund, lauded the Interior Ministry’s efforts, describing the gesture as both magnanimous and deeply symbolic.
“For decades, our security agencies have worked tirelessly to protect lives and maintain peace. Today, they have taken their commitment one step further — by showing national care through this remarkable act of compassion,” the President said.
He praised the donation as a shining example of patriotism and urged other public and private institutions to take inspiration from it and lend their support to the MahamaCares initiative.
The event underscored a growing trend of public institutions going beyond their traditional roles to participate in nation-building through humanitarian efforts.
