GHANA - DAY 27

Donation checking, packing, donation delivery and finally a mojito!!!

A weird one. There was plenty of sitting around today! Having checked the donation was all present and correct and called in to deliver it to the A&E department.
A final grand total of £2,660 was raised, which is around 41,600 Ghanaian Cedis. Taking into account the fees & the % taken by gofundme, fluctuating exchange rates and costs to take the cedis out of the cash machine here (Ghana is a cash only country, bank transfers weren't possible and the limits on the cash machines meant it had to be taken out in 9 separate transactions over 3 days!) The pot was 36,000 cedis. This money was spent on the supply list shown below, as well as pens, scissors, batteries and the remaining (plus a bit added) needed to be used to pay for the Tro-tro!

All I now needed to do was pack and chill a bit before we headed out for some tea and drinks tonight 😊

I finally got the mojito I've tried to have since I got here (mint is in short supply in Ghana) and now it's time to try and sleep with fans and no air con as we have a power cut 🤣Read more
