“I don’t know what I would have done without the monthly stipend from Elder Tobbin and his Foundation. I am a diabetic patient and rely on this money anytime I have to go the hospital for check-up “ – says Madam Regina Akua Sey, a beneficiary.
“My children don’t seem to care about me. They don’t send me money for my upkeep. The monthly grant support is my main source of income for me. If it had not been for this money, I would have been dead by now,’’ Mr. Kofi Ametor said.
