“Meeko pe bibi abe di”: Mason who fell from 4 storey building gets lifted by Kessben Outreach Foundation

Medical costs of a mason who fell from a 4 storey building while working to provide for his family were covered by the Kessben Outreach Foundation.

The organization not only paid the medical expenses but also helped the injured mason’s family start a business.

The family was given everything they needed to establish a baking business, including ingredients and equipment costing GHC10,000.

Sammy Adu Boakye, the General Manager of the foundation led a team to present the items to the injured family.

The excited family, a resident of Kwamo in the Ashanti region after the donation expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the Kessben Outreach Foundation.

“Kweku is a by-day mason who unfortunately fell from the fourth floor of a building he’s working on. He’s lucky to be alive but as it stands he cannot do anything meaningful unless a miracle. With five kids , he was living as a squatter in an unkept uncompleted building.

He had been discharged from the hospital but with an outstanding huge bill which led to his being detained for over three months.

After hearing about his predicament, my worry was not even him but the unemployed wife and the five kids. It was devastating to learn that the wife could not afford transportation to visit him so she would set off at 11 am walking 17km and back to visit him, this journey she sometimes did with two of the younger kids…,

We managed to pay the bill, tears in his eyes, he kept saying he had nobody to help him and how grateful he was… now he was going to go home…. We arranged enough food, water, drinks and clothings .

We asked the wife what she could do to sustain the family, she responded she had learnt how to bake and do Pasteries…

With help from Samuela Opoku ware, 10 year old from ridge school, provided 2 bags of flour, tow buckets of margarine and a gallon of oil, Robert Tetteh supported us to provide the stove. We cannot say thank you enough to our donors .

To mgt and staff of Kath, we are always grateful for your support, especially social welfare.

The joy of helping and seeing someone smile because of u is and experience we must all get… Help someone when u can…. Kessben outreach foundation…little acts of kindness” Sammy Adu Boakye said.
