Gospel minister Pastor Edwin Dadson, in partnership with Spikenard Music International and other partners, has donated GH¢50,000 to Little Hearts Foundation, a pediatric cardiac medical centre located near Burma Camp, to support children living with congenital heart conditions.
Little Hearts Foundation, led by renowned pediatric cardiologist Prof. Nana Akyaa Yao, provides specialised cardiac care and life-saving heart surgeries for children across Ghana and beyond. The donation is expected to directly support surgeries, medication, and essential medical care for vulnerable children in urgent need.
The funds were raised from proceeds of Pastor Edwin Dadson’s annual gospel concert, “This Far By Grace”, an event that has grown into a platform that combines worship with tangible community impact.
Speaking at the donation ceremony, Pastor Edwin Dadson shared the heart behind the initiative, stressing that worship must extend beyond music and church walls.
“Worship must go beyond the altar and touch lives. When God touches us, we must also touch others. Supporting these children and seeing them go through successful surgeries brings us deep fulfilment. We want them to grow up one day and confidently say, ‘We too have come this far by grace.’”
He also revealed plans to expand the initiative in the near future.
“Our goal is to raise and donate GH¢100,000. This will allow even more children to access the urgent medical care and surgeries they desperately need. Together, we can save more lives.”
Receiving the donation on behalf of the Foundation, Prof. Nana Akyaa Yao expressed profound gratitude to Pastor Edwin Dadson, Spikenard Music International, and all partners involved.
“This support is truly life-changing. Donations like this directly translate into surgeries, medication, and specialised care for children who otherwise may not survive. We are deeply grateful to Pastor Edwin Dadson, Spikenard Music International, and everyone who continues to stand with us in giving these children a second chance at life.”
Past editions of the “This Far By Grace” concert have also benefited from partnerships with organisations such as mNtofy and Signum Development, whose contributions helped achieve previous fundraising targets. Appreciation was extended to volunteers, individuals, and groups who have consistently supported the project over the years.
This initiative highlights the growing role of faith-based and creative platforms in driving social change and strengthening access to healthcare for vulnerable children in Ghana. Through music, worship, and compassion, Pastor Edwin Dadson and Spikenard Music International continue to demonstrate how ministry can create real and lasting impact.
Saving the lives of children who will live, grow, and thrive alongside our institutions stands as a powerful testimony of collective responsibility and meaningful social transformation.
