A Plea for Life

The Untold Stories

At Adomah Kidney Care Foundation, we witness the profound human toll of kidney disease every single day. Today, we share another story that underscores why our work is so vital and why your support matters more than ever.

This cause represents the countless patients across Ghana who face unimaginable hardship in their battle with kidney disease. Many cannot afford even a single dialysis session, let alone the ongoing treatments required to sustain their lives. Families are torn apart by the financial burden, and patients are forced to make impossible choices between their health and their survival.

The Adomah Kidney Care Foundation stands in the gap for these individuals, providing financial assistance, connecting patients with healthcare resources, and advocating for systemic changes that will make kidney care more accessible to all Ghanaians. Your support directly impacts lives and brings hope to those who need it most.

The Reality in Numbers

• Over 13% of Ghanaian adults live with some form of chronic kidney disease
• GH₵300-500 per dialysis session — most patients need 3 sessions per week
• Limited centers — Only a handful of hospitals in Ghana offer dialysis
• Late diagnosis — Most patients don't know they have kidney disease until it's advanced
• Family impact — 68% of caregivers deplete their savings for treatment costs
