2HCC Members Donates to Hohoe Municipal Hospital |
2H City Connect made a donation to the
Hohoe Municipal Hospital in January 2017, right after New Year’s Day. The
assorted items were presented to the children’s ward of the government hospital;
a gesture that has received great reviews.
“Our goals evolved from just meeting
to have fun to more” rewarding ones, says Agbemor-Flint Honour, a founding member
of 2HCC. Agbemor hinted that the group intends to identify a project in
Hohoe from time to time to support.
2H City Connect is a classic example
of what is possible when ideas are shared in the right places, at the right
time, with the right people.
The group, known for its fun-filled
area-to-area gatherings, was inspired by a Facebook post by one of its founding
members, Cynthia Ama Gadzanku. Gadzanku expressed nostalgia for the town she
grew up in – Hohoe – whose culture leaves lasting impressions on all manner of
people with physical connection to the area.

The group derives its name from an existing nickname for Hohoe – 2H City – which is especially popular among the millennial from the area, a demographic critical to its success.
The challenges this infant
organization faces are not unexpected. They range from financial through idea pooling and to some extent, operational.
Currently, its activities are centered in Accra and membership excludes people
based in Hohoe townships. But that is temporary, Agbemor points out, stating that
the group’s interim executives are working hard toward opening its membership to Hohoe
residents by Easter 2017. Still, everyone, regardless of residence, can freely
participate in all of 2HCC’s activities, the leadership emphasizes.
2H City Connect relies heavily on
social media to get its message out. Its Facebook page is its leading communication channel. The group is in the process of creating a database within
Accra, through which it hopes to more effectively reach its target audience.
Beyond having fun, members also could benefit from 2HCC in other meaningful ways. They can look up to the group for links in the job market in
line with 2HCC's strong desire to help group members achieve economic empowerment in any way possible, Agbemor explains.
That 2H City Connect is a breath of
fresh air for the Hohoe area, there is no doubt. Sustaining its vision however
cannot be underestimated; hence the call for all to come together to make the group's dream
a success.
“A little kindness can make a big difference,” Agbemor appeals.
