The beneficiary facilities included the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, Princess Marie Louise Children’s Hospital, and the Greater Accra Regional Hospital, Ridge.

President of the charity, Dr Gloria Nimo, explained that the initiative was inspired by the needs of children undergoing long-term hospital care, particularly those receiving chemotherapy who are often isolated from their communities. 

She said the charity wanted to find a meaningful way to support these children during their time away from friends and family.

"We thought about how we could help them spend that time meaningfully, and giving them toys seemed the best way. Toys are not just playthings—they support neurocognitive development and help children cope with depression,” she stated.

Dr Nimo stressed the importance of providing children with stimulating items while hospitalised. 

According to her, the toys donated were carefully selected to aid children's learning and mental wellbeing while easing the emotional burden of confinement.

“Children need things that stimulate them, especially during such challenging times. These toys help neurocognitively and serve as emotional support,” she noted.

She added that toys become companions for the children, especially during painful procedures, acting as allies they can hold on to, helping to redirect their pain and offer comfort.

The Toy Drive project, Dr Nimo revealed, is part of a broader national initiative and forms a key aspect of the organisation's annual medical mission to care for children with disabilities and others in need. She also disclosed that Amazing Grace is in the process of building a hospital that will cater to underprivileged communities.

“Our focus is on making sure every child reaches their developmental milestone, whether in a hospital or community setting. Toys are one of the tools we use to help achieve this,” she said.

Dr Nimo highlighted the need for stronger community engagement, stating that many hospitals lack essential items for children's wellbeing. She called on other non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to step in to support in areas such as toys, learning materials, and medical equipment.

The Head of Public Relations and Client Services at Princess Marie Louise Children’s Hospital, Rockson Obeng, expressed the hospital’s gratitude for the donation. He said the hospital had been looking forward to such support and emphasised the positive impact it would have.

"Organisations like Amazing Grace help put smiles on the faces of our young patients. This will go a long way in lifting the spirits of these children who are stuck in hospital due to health challenges," he stated.

The charity’s gesture has been widely appreciated as it aligns with the goal of holistic paediatric care; combining medical treatment with emotional and developmental support.
