Here for Perfection also known as H4P, a leading NGO dedicated to empowering Persons With Disabilities (PWDs), marked its 14th anniversary on January 12 with a vibrant Thanksgiving Service at Fire City Chapel.

The event was a celebration of the organization’s impactful journey and its unwavering commitment to improving the lives of PWDs in Ghana.

The service was filled with inspiring testimonials from individuals whose lives have been transformed by H4P’s support, talented performances, and reflections on the NGO’s remarkable achievements over the past 14 years.

Rev. John Mefful, a board member of the Ghana Society of the Physically Disabled and pastor of MegaWord Chapel International, Takoradi, delivered a powerful sermon.

As a respected clergy with a disability, he emphasized the importance of inclusion, compassion, and celebrating the unique talents of every individual, regardless of their abilities.

Several notable figures shared their experiences and appreciation for H4P’s advocacy efforts:

Prof. Michael Adu, Head of the Department of Crop Science at the University of Cape Coast, recounted his family’s cultural shock upon relocating to Ghana from the UK regarding disability perceptions. He praised H4P for advocating not just for PWDs, but also for caregivers and parents of children with disabilities, often a forgotten minority.

Raphael Botsyo Nkegbe, founder of Gogetdem Wheelchair Racing Club, commended H4P’s relentless efforts in bringing dignity and opportunities to persons with disabilities.

Madam Martha Coffie, a mental health advocate, shared how her interview on H4P’s Helping Hand TV Show inspired her to become a mentor and advocate for individuals facing mental health challenges. She recounted her personal experiences with discrimination and victimization and lauded H4P’s commitment to fighting misconceptions surrounding disability.

The service was graced by several distinguished guests, including:

Nana Adutwumwaa I, Tufuhemaa of Otublohum and Founder of the Ghana Organization on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Naa Otobea I, Tufuhemaa of the Benjum Division of Otublohum Madam Christina Nkrumah, Deputy Director for the Center for Employment of PWDs Mrs. Emma Wilhelmina Halm Danso ("Sweetness"), Founder of Oyeman Autoimmune Foundation Mr. Alexander Kojo Tetteh, Executive President of the Centre for Employment of Persons with Disabilities
