Meet Reuben Griffiths,The Young Man Walking From Kumasi To Accra For A Worthy Cause
Last year,with a passion for smiles Reuben Griffiths Bekoe cycled 13 hours a day across Ghana, sleeping in police stations and living off a diet of bread and cola.
Bekoe, 21 left his home in Accra on August 10, got on his bike and started a four-month adventure, biking across all ten regions of Ghana.
He was raising money and awareness for the Ghana Cleft Foundation. The Foundation operates on children with cleft deformities, at no cost to the parents.
He is back this year and he is doing something even more amazing;he is walking from Kumasi to Accra dubbed W4Charity(Walk For Charity) which is approximately 260km doing 40km a day and expects to get to Accra by Sunday,August 7 having begun the journey on Monday,August 1.
Bekoe is aiming to raise much-needed funds for child cancer treatment and equipment for the cancer unit in the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital in Kumasi. He wants to help families pay for the treatment of children with cancer,as diagnosis and treatment is costly. Children die because families can not afford the drugs each year and he wants to help stop this.
