WHO WE ARE

The Fever Relief Foundation (FRF) was founded in 2010 by Akwasi Oppong, a native of Ghana and now a citizen of the United States.  FRF received 501c3 tax exempt status in 2013.  From first-hand experience, Mr. Oppong experienced plenty and experienced and observed the ravages of want.  Determined to change lives both in the United States and Ghana, Akwasi focused upon children and women.  


Beginning with children, especially special needs children and those from low-income single parent homes, ‘Project Kick’ was created.   Using the game of soccer as the vehicle to gather, impact, and transform the lives of children and their families, the program provides after school activities both at home and abroad.  In addition to the actual game, there are the components of teamwork, mentoring, role-modeling, tutoring, and good citizenship.  Sports activities are transformative for both males and females.  Project Kick is determined to make contributions in the lives of the young people that participate in the program that will last forever. 


 In addition to Project Kick which operates both in the US and Ghana and has served more than a thousand children, FRF operates ‘ A Book In Hand’,  ‘Change of Clothing’, ‘Project MD’, and ‘Project New Hope’. These projects focus upon the gathering of discarded, but still usable, items of clothing, books, athletic equipment, and medical supplies.  What was discarded in the United States, gains a new life in the US and Ghana, and change lives in the US and Ghana.

More than $15 billion worth of medical supplies are discarded each year in the United States. At the same time, less fortunate countries are in desperate need of medical supplies. FRF closes this health care gap by connecting those who have with those who hope. Medical and surgical supplies and equipment (crutches, wheelchairs, scalpels, syringes, gloves, antibiotics, beds, exam tables etc.) are procured and delivered to health care providers in Ghana West Africa.


ACCOMPLISHMENTS TO DATE: 


In 2013, Fever Relief Fund made 17 shipments of medical supplies and equipment to 10 Government hospitals in Ghana W. Africa. These donated articles are of immeasurable assistance to FRF health care programs overseas, often making the difference between remaining open or closing.


The goal is to raise, on a yearly basis, $346,000 for the shipping program. FRF volunteers gather, sort, repair, catalogue, pack and ship items ranging from needles, syringes, bandages, incubators, computers, ultra sound, and etc.as donations to hospitals in the region.
