The items valued at ¢100,000 were presented to Korle Bu on behalf of the CEO of the company, Yasser Alia.
Dr. Ali Samba, the Director of Medical Affairs, received the items on behalf of the Hospital.
The donation, according to the Management of the Auto Service company, was to give back to the society.

"We presented 25 double crank hospital beds and 10 wheelchairs. We also want to use this opportunity to assure Korle Bu that this will be a long term partnership since we will be coming from time to time,” Mr Samuel Asante Mensah said.
Nana Odidwour Baah Kokroko III, Tumfohene of Asante Akyem Hwediem who was also there to throw his weight behind the Hardford Auto Service Management team reiterated the company’s commitment to supporting the society it finds itself in.
