My name is Steven Simpson, President of Akoma Ntoso Foundation. Our cause is to empower residents in rural Ghana by enhancing medical, health and education initiatives. Our foundation embodies a lifelong passion of mine to help others invest in training and developing local knowledge and skills in rural communities.
I am Celina Moore, MD, FAAP, director of Pediatrics at the Atria Institute, Palm Beach, Florida. It is my lifelong desire to help others less fortunate. My goal is to educate, empower, and advocate for sustainable quality healthcare in rural Ghana by creating an international humanitarian relationship with our Ghanaian partners.
I am a registered nurse with the Ghanaian Health Service and worked in public health in rural Ghana since 2015. I am known to my patients and friends as Washington. I am in charge of local operations and community outreach through Akoma Ntoso Foundation. My goal is to ensure that healthcare services are made available and accessible to rural villagers regardless of geographical settlement, age, gender, religion, or ethnic background.
I am a health records management graduate from the College of Health and Well-Being in Kintampo, Ghana. I am a co-founder of Akoma Ntoso Foundation, managing the Ghanian arm of rural outreach projects. I have the heart of a humanitarian and I love rendering service to others. I have worked for many years in various NGO organizations to help coordinate humanitarian services to the rural villages of Ghana and my expertise is now geared towards the mission of Akoma Ntoso Foundation. I believe that serving others puts joy in their hearts and smiles on their faces. I also love fashion, sewing, cooking, and listening to music.
I am a Senior Health Promotion Officer with the KEEA Municipal Health Directorate, where I lead primary health care strategies, design community-centered health interventions, and coordinate disease prevention campaigns. I also serve as the Focal Person for Logistics and Supply Management, overseeing the tracking and delivery of essential medical and health promotion materials to health facilities across the municipality. My skills include mobile data collection (KoboCollect/XLSForm), qualitative data analysis (NVivo), and health logistics reporting (GhiLMIS). I am proud to bring this experience to Akoma Ntoso Foundation’s work in our communities.
I’m proud to volunteer with the Akoma Ntoso Foundation and help make a real difference for children and families in Ghana. I believe meaningful change starts with simply caring enough to get involved, and I’m especially committed to helping children get the medical care and resources they need for healthier, brighter futures. By raising awareness and encouraging others to support our mission, I hope to help expand the Foundation’s reach — one child, one family, and one act of kindness at a time.
I serve as a board member and volunteer with the Akoma Ntoso Foundation, and my involvement is deeply personal. As the brother of one co-founder and brother-in-law of the other, I’ve seen firsthand the dedication they bring to medical missions and education support in Ghana. Through fundraising, planning, and board service, I help provide the resources and support behind the scenes that allow this work to grow. Professionally, I’m Vice President and Managing Director of The Stamm Agency, a life insurance brokerage, where I’ve spent more than 40 years building a career around relationships and service as a CLU and ChFC.
I am a digital marketer, passionate about raising awareness and promoting causes on social media. For years, I have captured photos and videos of the Akoma Ntoso Foundation’s work in the communities we serve. My goal is to share that work with the world and inspire more people to volunteer and give.
