Our latest project, CleanPlay, took place in Kumasi, Ghana. Our team went to the village of Edum Wamase to organize a local soccer tournament and provide health-related educational sessions. We provided housing and food throughout the event to ensure all participants could fully engage in the activities. In addition, we enlisted dedicated nurses to administer complimentary checkups during the tournament, extending vital healthcare services to the community. In total, 323 men, women, and children, received medical checkups at no cost.

Our second annual CleanPlay tournament took place in Dansoman, Accra, Ghana, where we hosted a local soccer competition, offered free health screenings, and provided health education sessions. Building on the success of the previous year’s event, our medical team identified several critical health issues that required immediate attention. This year, a doctor was on-site to offer timely care to high-risk individuals and lead interactive sessions on personal hygiene and overall health, ensuring both immediate care and long-term wellness for the community.
