Konkonuru Healthcare Center and Ganette Miriam Home for the Aged

Since its inception in 1998 the Rita Marley Foundation has worked passionately hard to improve the lives of those less privileged. The Foundation works to ensure that children are nourished and the aged be protected and cared for.

In keeping to this premise, the Rita Marley Foundation has constructed the Konkonuru Healthcare Center & Ganette Miriam Home for the Aged as a gift to the rural community of Konkonuru in Ghana. It is equipped with medical resources and services to care for guests and those in need of healthcare. The facility’s founder, Mrs. Rita Marley and the Rita Marley Foundation believe that cleanliness is next to Godliness; for this reason, guests at the healthcare center are guaranteed a clean and hygienic environment.

Guest rooms #1 & #2 each with 3 beds and bathrooms

Ganette Miriam Home for the Aged will accommodate seven in house residents. They will be cared for by a qualified team of in house care-givers. Forever grateful for the support received from the Annenburg Foundation, the Rita Marley Foundation has named the only private suite at the facility the ‘Annenburg Suite.’

Guests and staff will immediately feel at home by the warm and welcoming ambience in the Berhane Selassie Arrival Hall. Berhane Selassie is Bob Marley’s baptismal Ethiopian Orthodox name. It means ‘Light of the Trinity.’ This beautiful hall was personally designed and decorated by Sister Ganette Miriam (Mrs. Rita Marley).
