10-year-old Master Nicholas Buama has donated nine thousand Ghana cedis to the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) at its Headquarters in Accra.
According to Nicholas, he was always concerned about the healthcare of children and therefore decided on his own to raise money on Youtube Channel to help in the course.
The decision to donate to the Scheme, according to the 10-year-old, is because of the services the NHIS provides in ensuring access to healthcare.
The CEO of the NHIA, Dr. Lydia Dsane-Selby, the Deputy CEO in charge of Finance & Investment Mr. Francis Owusu, and the Board Chairman, Dr. Ernest K. P. Kwarko received the donation on behalf of the Authority.
Dr. Lydia Dsane-Selby thanked the young man for his kind gesture and assured him of registering the children onto the Scheme.
She added that the amount donated will cater for about 1,500 children, which she said was a significant number of children to be registered onto the Scheme.
Nicholas Buamah is a published author and philanthropist and the founder of Books without Borders, a nonprofit organization.
Nicholas has worked on several charitable projects here in Ghana and is now the ambassador for the kid’s Department at Opemsuo Radio, which is the Manhyia Palace Media.
