Ten children were the lucky recipients of gift bags from Friends of POMGen (FOPG) when they paid a visit to the Paediatric Cardiac ward with essential supplies, dry goods and fun reading books.
These little heroes had undergone surgery at the Port Moresby General Hospital, Cardiac Ward.
The authorized charity and fundraising division of Port Moresby General Hospital (PMGH) organized and handed out gift bags to the children and their caregivers while they were admitted to the ward.
The initiative, led by FOPG Manager Ms. Grace Roland, sought to provide a moment of happiness and solace to children receiving critical care.
Ms Roland expressed pleasure seeing the children’s delighted faces.
“It was wonderful to see the smiles on the faces of these little warriors, who have shown remarkable recovery and steady improvement following their surgeries.”
“These are the moments that remind us why we do what we do.”
FOPG has been supporting more than 400,000 struggling patients at PMGH since its establishment in 2022 and still continues with the help and support from our donors and supporters.
FOPG gives its thanks to the local and Singapore heart specialists for the marvellous job at the Cardiac Diagnostic Centre, the Operation Open Heart for the coordination of this life changing surgery as well as the donors, volunteers, and supporters whose generous contributions continue to make occasions like this possible.
