Vice President Dr Jane Ansah has urged Malawians to embrace a spirit of unity and compassion in supporting children with disabilities, emphasizing that every child deserves equal access to healthcare and opportunities.
Speaking during the Beit Cure Hospital fundraising dinner held in Blantyre on Saturday night, Dr Ansah said the initiative reflects the nation’s collective duty to care for its most vulnerable citizens.
The dinner aimed to raise K310 million to fund surgeries and rehabilitation services for 206 children suffering from physical disabilities all to be provided free of charge.
Dr Ansah hailed Beit Cure Hospital for its long-standing commitment to restoring hope among children and families, describing the institution as a “beacon of compassion and excellence” in Malawi’s healthcare system.
She also appealed to the private sector, faith-based organizations and individuals to “open their hearts and resources” to ensure no child is left behind due to financial hardship.
The event drew participation from government officials, corporate executives, diplomats, and clergy, all pledging continued support for the hospital’s life-transforming mission.
Beit Cure Hospital, established over two decades ago, continues to serve thousands of children from across Malawi and neighboring countries through orthopedic and reconstructive surgeries.
