May 9, 2023: Remembrance March For May 9 Stadium Disaster Victims
This year 2023 Theme for the lineup of memorial events is ‘Changing Lives.’
Families of the victims of the May 9 stadium disaster and the physically challenged community
This year’s May 9 memorial events in Ghana witnessed participation from families and their children who received support for surgeries on their hole-in-heart disease.
The formerly sick children benefited from cash donations between $6000-$14000 from the Shen Yang and Shen Yuet Children’s Heart Foundation, who have pledged to pay for the high cost of treating some children in Ghana with a hole in heart disease for the next 10 years.
The Chinese charity foundation is named after 17-year-old Shen Yang, a hole-in-heart survivor, and his brother, both sons of Chinese investor Shen Yan Chang, the founder and chairman of the SUNDA & KEDA International Group of Companies operating in Ghana.
It’s always a day of sadness and joy for me. Sadness at what happened to so many but happiness when we meet as a family. We must help brother and sister when we can and the price of bringing happiness surpasses everything!
