Bio

Hi, I am Mabel Frimpong, a first-generation, low-income, and international student with a Biochemistry and Molecular Biology major on a premed track at Bryn Mawr College, PA. I am passionate about health policy and giving back to my community through volunteering and advocacy. I founded Ako Health Foundation which is a nonprofit health advocacy organization. With no funding, I embarked on an 8-week health outreach program Summer of 2024 which had a 6-week research on stroke, diabetes, and heart attack with a 3-day onsite health talk with the traders of Ayeduase market, Ghana. I have bigger goals of giving back to my community. Ako Health Foundation's LinkedIn page https://www.linkedin.com/company/ako-health-foundation/
