The presentation, which was done on 26th December across the country, was spearheaded by staff of MTN Ghana. MTN volunteers took time off during their holidays to spend time to visit and distribute gifts to mothers in 30 hospitals in all 16 regions.
The hampers contained diapers, blankets, wipes, shawls, towels, bibs, clothes, toiletries and other baby essentials as well as airtime for each of the mothers.

Michael Danso, Administrator at the Effia Nkwanta Regional Hospital, expressed gratitude to MTN Ghana for the distribution of hampers.
“A lot of mothers need these items to cater for their newborns but the hospital cannot support them because of financial constraints. This shows that you are very responsible and we pray you continue to do more,” he said.
