Hi! We’re Josh and Abby. Josh is from Ghana, and I (Abby) am from the USA.

For years, Josh and I have dreamed of giving back to his community in a meaningful way. Recently, we were blessed with the opportunity to return to Ghana and witness the needs firsthand. What we saw inspired us—we realized we have an incredible chance to make a lasting difference.

Josh’s sister, Priscilla, is an extraordinary doctor who has dedicated her life to saving others, especially birthing mothers. Her experience on the front lines of healthcare has given her a deep understanding of the community’s most urgent needs. She firmly believes that building this hospital will transform lives and elevate the well-being of countless families.

This won’t be just any hospital—it will focus on the needs of women, birthing mothers, and children. We want to ensure that cost never becomes a barrier between life and death, and our goal is to never turn anyone away.

But our mission goes beyond treatment. Education and community outreach will be essential components of the hospital’s services, helping to prevent health issues before they arise.

We are committed to creating lasting and sustainable impact. This hospital will not only save lives but also provide vital education, improve public health, and create jobs for the local community.

The Buahin family is generously donating their land and home to make this vision possible. Now, we need your help to turn this dream into reality. ♥️

We’ll be working in phases, and your partnership and support will be crucial every step of the way. Use the links below to follow us on social media and stay updated on our latest progress and initiatives.

Current Needs: How You Can Help

Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we’ve successfully built the core of New Haven Hospital—a vital step toward transforming healthcare in the community. Now, we need your help to equip the hospital with essential medical tools and technology to provide the care our patients desperately need.

Below is a list of specific equipment we are raising funds for, along with estimated costs:

  • Ultrasound Machine: $2,500
    Includes one probe of choice and a printer to support diagnostic imaging.

  • Hematology Analyzer: $5,000–$9,000
    A 3-part Hematology Analyzer with starting reagents costs $5,000. However, our preference is a 5-part Hematology Analyzer, which provides more detailed results, at $9,000 if funding allows.

  • Fully Automated Biochemistry Analyzer: $14,000
    Includes starting reagents and installation, enabling comprehensive diagnostic testing.

Your support will help us take this next critical step in making New Haven Hospital a fully operational healthcare facility. Every contribution moves us closer to providing quality, life-saving care to the community.

From Our Doctor: A Call to Action

As a doctor working in a district hospital, I frequently see how the lack of access to affordable healthcare and education devastates lives. Patients often resort to traditional, unproven methods, leading to serious outcomes. For example, the high stillbirth rate in our community stems from pregnant women not receiving antenatal care or delivering in healthcare facilities. Unsupervised home deliveries frequently result in complications or fatalities.

The healthcare system in rural Ghana is deeply inadequate and inaccessible to many. Even with the national health insurance system in place, families are unable to access essential services or specialist care because they are not covered. Chronic understaffing, poor compensation for workers, and a critical lack of basic medical equipment further compound the challenges. Coupled with high illiteracy rates, these gaps lead to mortalities and morbidities that are preventable.

Every day, lives are lost in our communities because we lack basic healthcare essentials—ECG machines, defibrillators, ventilators, oxygen supply systems, ultrasound machines, x-ray machines, properly equipped laboratories, and access to blood banks. These tools are not luxuries; they are necessities.

This hospital can change everything. It will bring life-saving resources, compassionate care, and hope to a community that desperately needs it. Together, we can make this vision a reality—saving lives, preventing unnecessary suffering, and building a healthier future for all.
