In October 2024, AF organized a health outreach in Menhutem, where residents received free screenings and education on wellness. Among the attendees was the Queen Mother, a respected figure in the community. Though she came to support her people, she agreed to a routine check-up. To her surprise, the results revealed dangerously high blood pressure. The medical team swiftly transferred her to Huni Valley Clinic for urgent care. She was detained for several hours under close monitoring.

“I felt fine, but the numbers told a different story. I’m grateful this outreach didn’t just help my people—it may have saved my life — Queen Mother Mary Yankson testified.

This experience not only highlighted the importance of regular health checks but also broke the silence around preventive healthcare, sparking deeper awareness within the community.
