It Started With An Idea...
I have always been motivated to give back and elevate those who may need assistance. As a child of immigrant parents, I have grown up hearing about life in Ghana and understanding the hardships many people face. Throughout my visits, I have learned the importance of implementing the change I want to see. Deciding to form this non profit manifested because of seeing the impact donations and interactions had on children in the orphanages of Ghana. My goal is for orphans to feel empowered and encouraged to achieve economical and educational success.

More than the act of giving...
The ability to give, to inspire and put a smile on a child's face is a liberating feeling. As a child of immigrant parents from Ghana, it's important for me to be able to give back to the communities my parents grew up in. Listening to their childhood stories of hardships and witnessing it in present-day, during my recent trips to Ghana, made me realize that there is still work that needs to be done within the country. The youth are our future leaders of Ghana, yet many are at a disadvantage due to limited economical and educational resources. My goal through our foundation is to be able to equip the youth, at the orphanages we support, with resources that promote their personal development in addition to educational growth.
