The COCOBOD Senior Staff Association (COSSA-Head Office) has donated wheelchairs and other medical supplies to Cocoa Clinics in Accra, Kumasi and Debiso to support healthcare delivery and improve patient care.

The donation, described as the first of its kind by the Association, forms part of COSSA’s commitment to promoting the welfare of cocoa farmers, COCOBOD staff and the general public through enhanced healthcare services.

Speaking on the initiative, Chairman of COSSA-Head Office, Mr. Issah Abdul-Razak, said the items would facilitate the smooth movement of patients within the clinics and enable healthcare professionals to provide more efficient and effective services.

“The donation underscores COSSA’s dedication to supporting healthcare services within COCOBOD and reinforces the organisation’s broader commitment to the welfare of its stakeholders and communities,” he stated.

Presenting the items on behalf of the Association, Mrs. Paz Owusu Boakye, Deputy Director of Human Resource and a member of COSSA, emphasised the importance of corporate social responsibility and giving back to society.

She noted that such initiatives support vulnerable groups and create meaningful and lasting impacts in local communities.

Mrs. Owusu Boakye further explained that investment in healthcare contributes to a healthy and productive workforce, which in turn promotes the overall well-being and development of society.

Receiving the items on behalf of the beneficiary clinics, Dr. James Addo Tetteh, Senior Medical Manager at Cocoa Clinic, expressed appreciation to COSSA for the gesture.

He assured the Association that the donated items would be put to good use to improve healthcare delivery and enhance patients’ comfort across the facilities.

The donation highlights COSSA’s growing role in supporting healthcare initiatives within COCOBOD and strengthening community welfare through targeted social interventions.
