McOttley Holdings has donated a sum of $6000 to support the surgical operation of Abdul Kadri Umar, a four year-old hole-in-heart child at the Korle Bu Children’s Hospital.

The donation which was recommended by the Group President Mr. Richard Dugan, follows a news report on Light TV early this year calling on corporates and individuals to financially support little Abdul undergo surgery.

“As part of our commitment to giving back to society and our dedication to financially empowering the vulnerable, we decided to sponsor Abdul’s surgery” said Mrs. Happy Forson, Managing Director of McOttley Capital. “We have already supported financially with a number of medical conditions and will continue to support the vulnerable as part of our Corporate Social Responsibility”. This forms part of McOttley’s 3rd anniversary celebration program to make an impact on humanity.

A year ago little Abdul was diagnosed with the heart condition. This made him vulnerable to severe infections and life threatening crisis, preventing him from actively playing with his peers. He was confined to his hospital bed for several months.

Mariam Kadri mother of Abdul expressed her gratitude to McOttley Holdings for the charitable act and prayed God’s blessings over the company. To emphasize the impact of the donation, she further narrated the challenges the family has had to endure since Abdul’s heart condition and subsequent admission at the hospital. “We will remain internally grateful to McOttley Holdings for its timely intervention” – said Mariam Kadri.

The Director of McOttley Money Lending Mr. Anthony Akweatea Mensah, Head of Group Human resource, Mr. Owusu Mensah Abunyewa, and other senior managers were present at the donation.
