Team of Hope, a non-profit organization operating in the Upper East Region, has successfully concluded its mid-year surgical outreach in the Builsa Traditional Area.
The three-day exercise, which took place from June 2 to June 4, 2025, saw 100 surgical cases handled at the Sandema Hospital and the Fumbisi Hospital. Conditions treated included hernia, hydroceles, hemorrhoids, and goitre, among others.
Speaking in a live interview, the CEO of Team of Hope, Dr. Benjamin Akinkang, described the outreach as a success and called for increased community support to sustain and expand future missions.
The organization conducts two major surgical outreaches annually—in June and November—as part of its commitment to improving access to essential healthcare in underserved communities.
Over the years, Team of Hope has carried out successful missions at the Sandema Hospital, Fumbisi Hospital, and Paga Hospital, all in the Upper East Region.
Dr. Akinkang emphasized the importance of local collaboration, urging traditional authorities, individuals, and development partners to support the initiative through funding, logistics, and mobilization to reach more people in need.
He reaffirmed the organization’s dedication to providing quality surgical care and called on all stakeholders to help make future outreaches even more impactful.
