The donation was in response to an appeal made by the National Catholic Secretariat with the blessing of the Ghana Catholic Bishops’ Conference to organisations, businesses and the faithful to donate Personal Protective Equipment and other medical supplies to Catholic health facilities following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
