For 77-year-old Frank Appiah Nuamah, a retired Ashantigold worker from Odumase, life had dimmed long before sunset. About three years ago, he had been told at a local hospital that he was developing cataract. "They gave me some medication, but my sight kept getting worse. Then Quantum came around with a mini-clinic for general health examination — that was my miracle."
That miracle was made possible by Quantum LC, a general services contracting firm that is quietly changing lives in Obuasi through a partnership with AngloGold Ashanti and the NGO Help Is On The Way, providing free annual health screening outreach that benefited more than 600 residents last year, with 15 of them undergoing eye surgery to remove cataracts.
The initiative was fully funded by Quantum LC, inspired by personal loss — the blindness of the founder's late mother, Mrs Iris Titus Glover.
"Watching my mother go blind was one of the most painful experiences of my life," said Mr. Joseph Titus Glover, CEO of Quantum LC. "She became deeply unhappy, and it made me realise how much people lose when they lose their sight. I knew I had to do something to help others avoid that fate."
"If we can save even one person from going blind, it's worth every cedi," Glover said. "The people of Obuasi have supported us, and AngloGold Ashanti has given us opportunities to grow. This is our way of saying thank you."
At the heart of the medical effort was Dr. Benedicta Appiah-Thompson, Senior Specialist Ophthalmologist and Head of the Ophthalmology Unit at SALGYIN Medical Centre, Cape Coast. "Through this outreach programme, we aim to provide comprehensive eye care — screening, surgery, and post-operative rehabilitation — to help patients improve their vision and quality of life."
Sylvia Kisiedu, Quantum LC's Human Resource and Administration Manager, said: "When we held the first screening in Obuasi, we examined hundreds of people. Those who needed help were selected for surgery — 27 in total. Sadly, we lost one before the procedure, but 15 received the care they needed."
For Charles Narh-Bita, founder of Help Is On The Way Mission: "Joe and I have been friends since high school. To see this partnership help people who otherwise couldn't afford surgery — it's something special. I hope this model spreads across Ghana."

Beyond the eye outreach, Quantum LC's philanthropic work spans Ghana's healthcare landscape. The company donated funds to Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital for the purchase of ventilators and X-ray machines, and plans to build a community clinic in Obuasi to ensure ongoing healthcare access. "Before we leave Obuasi one day, we want to leave behind something lasting — a clinic that will continue to serve people long after we're gone," Glover said.
