Actress and founder of Mama Mariam’s Mother and Children Care Foundation, Habiba Sinare, has donated a Polytank to the Tamale Teaching Hospital to connect their Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) department.
According to the management of the department, the NICU has been without a water facility over the years, adding that, this has been a major issue affecting newborn babies and their mothers.
With the help of Mama Mariam’s foundation, there is a stable and potable water supply present in the NICU department.
Speaking after the donation, Miss Sinare said she was happy to contribute to the department’s endeavour to save lives of newborn babies and also happy to make work efficient for the staff
“I must say I feel extremely happy doing this for my little angels,” she said.
She further explained that: “Water is life. This will give the department full water supply anytime; reducing infections in the NICU department and of course easy and effective flow of medical staff activities.”
