MENFYD Foundation (Mentoring for Youth development) was born out of a passion for real and practical mentoring using the life stories of the mentors. I was indeed privileged to serve as the youngest and first female Physician to a sitting President of Ghana, H.E. John A. Kuffour in 2004. I catalogued my unique experiences and challenges in a book titled “The President’s Physician’’ in 2014 which sold over 5,000 copies worldwide. The feedback from this candid, witty, factual piece of literature spurred me on to set up the MENFYD Foundation in 2015 to mentor the youth of Africa and beyond using high achieving mentors who use their unadulterated life stories to encourage their mentees. The Foundation also focuses on literary projects to cultivate the habit of reading in our institutions.

Thank you for being a core part of this passion to raise the next generation to appreciate the need for resilience, perseverance, ethics and hardwork in their journey to success.
