Goal: 25,000 children in 5 years
Education
In the next five years, our educational projects aim to support over 25,000 children in rural communities to access quality value-based education in adequate facilities and resources.
Books for Rural Schools
Every child deserves a book of their own.
Our Books for Rural Schools initiative puts storybooks and reading materials into the hands of children who have never owned one. A book in a child's hands is the first step to a lifetime of learning.

Our Programmes
Seven ways we are changing lives
Every programme starts where help is most urgently needed and is built with the communities we serve.
Water for Life project
Clean Water
Our Water for Life project aims to end the daily walk for water and eradicate waterborne illnesses. In rural areas, people spend more than 30 minutes in accessing clean water in rural communities of Ghana.
Health Care
The path out of poverty begins when the next generation can access quality healthcare. Lack of basic facilities continue to account for poor healthcare delivery in rural communities of Ghana.
Sponsorship programme
Support for Orphans
Our sponsorship program aims to change the lives of orphans in some of the most deprived areas in Ghana. With your help, they will receive education, food, and healthcare that any child needs.
Elderly Support
Caring for those who once cared for us can be the highest honors on earth. Our goal is to support elderly people that are struggling in life after work life with essential items and services.
Disability Support
Disabled people are the poorest and worst-served group in the world. The greater the level of general poverty in any community, the worse the conditions are for the people with disability.
Life Skills for Youths
Skills and confidence for young people to earn and lead.

Needs $45,000
Six Unit Classroom
Salom D/A Basic School will receive a six-unit classroom block through the project "Building Brighter Futures." This initiative reflects our commitment to improving educational infrastructure and providing quality learning environments for children in our community.
300+ schools vetted
Community Library
Providing children with a wide selection of books increases their chances of developing a long-lasting passion for reading. Unfortunately, not all children have an equal opportunity to engage in reading. We have shortlisted and vetted over 300 rural schools that are ready to receive books.
Water for Life
Clean Water
The goal of the project "Water for Life" is to eliminate the need for daily long walks to fetch water and eradicate waterborne diseases in rural areas. We are currently studying ten (10) rural and impoverished communities in Ghana's Volta and Oti Regions, with a focus on their clean water requirements.
Life skills
Youth Empowerment
Lack of skills leads to the continuation of poverty and inequality. Developing life skills decreases unemployment and enhances living standards. Equipping youth in rural communities with skills can achieve the alleviation of poverty.
