Ghanaian songstress Wendy Shay celebrated her birthday on Tuesday, February 20, 2024 at the pediatric ward of Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital.
The singer, through her Wendy Shay Foundation, made a donation to the hospital.
Wendy Shay and her team delivered essential medical equipment to enhance the hospital's capacity to care for its youngest patients.
Among the items donated were baby cots, a surgery unit, a radiant warmer, a pediatric bed, and a suctioning machine.
These vital resources according to Wendy's team will go a long way to significantly improve the quality of care provided to new-borns and children at the hospital.
Also, the 'Survivor' hitmaker reiterated the mission of the Wendy Shay Foundation and stressed that they were focused on improving healthcare in the country and supporting those in need.
"As an artist, I believe in using my influence to create positive change. "Through the Wendy Shay Foundation, we aim to address pressing social issues and contribute to building a better future for all," Wendy stated.
The management of Korle Bu Teaching Hospital extended their heartfelt gratitude to Wendy Shay and her foundation for their invaluable contribution.
Dr. Hope Glover Addy, head of the Pediatric Surgery Unit, lauded the donation, emphasizing its direct impact on patient care.
Wendy Shay's philanthropic efforts extend beyond the healthcare sector.
Last year, during the world Children’s Day, she made headlines for her donation of educational items through the Wendy Shay Foundation Educare Initiative.
The beneficiaries of this initiative were the students of Weija Primary 1 and 2, who received newly sewn school uniforms, bags, whiteboards, and various stationery items.
