Child care and health-focused charity organization, Brogya Foundation, has been recognized for its exceptional contributions to child welfare with the prestigious “Outstanding Humanitarian Initiative Award” at the Ghana Outstanding Community Leadership Awards (GOCLA), held on May 30, 2025, at the La Palm Royal Beach Hotel in Accra.
The GOCLA Awards, which is powered by The Business Executive, recognizes social change makers and organizations that are driving progress in underserved communities, reinforcing the value of leadership rooted in service and humanitarian works..
Brogya Foundation was honoured for its transformative initiatives aimed at improving the lives of vulnerable children across Ghana—notably, donation of life-saving medical equipment such as infant incubators and phototherapy machines to the children’s ward at Agogo Presbyterian Hospital, significantly reducing infant mortality rates due to jaundice.
Commenting on the award, the founder and president of the organization, who is also the Dompeahene of Asante Akyem Agogo, Nana Bediako Brogya Sarpong, said: “This award is a testament to the power of compassion, collaboration, and community.”
“We dedicate this honor to our partners, supporters, and every individual who continues to believe in our mission,” he added.
Beyond healthcare, the Brogya Foundation has also supported education by distributing learning materials and over 1,000 pairs of shoes to underprivileged children. The organization regularly hosts inclusive events to uplift marginalized youth through community engagement and resource provision.
In its most ambitious project to date, the foundation partnered with renowned Ghanaian-American plastic surgeon Dr. Michael K. Obeng and his U.S.-based Restore Worldwide Foundation to offer a week-long free surgical mission at Agogo Presbyterian Hospital.
Over 300 reconstructive surgeries were performed for individuals with physical deformities caused by birth defects or trauma. Patients traveled from across Ghana and neighboring African countries to receive care, restoring not only their health but also their dignity and self-confidence.
