Future Through Education

Education is the key to a self-determined life

For us it is a matter of course that our children attend school and get an education. In Ghana, many children cannot go to school because the families cannot afford it or there is no possibility locally.  Numerous families can neither afford the school fees, nor pay for books and the school uniform that is customary in Ghana. Instead, there is often child labor. Many adults can therefore neither read nor write and the children have no way to get out of this cycle.

We have decided to support the Ghanaian association "Kinder Zentrum International" with the goal of building a school in the area of Hobor and are now working together in close partnership. In the area of Hobor the children live distributed in small settlements and have no possibility to go to school. The first three classrooms have already been completed. Currently, our partner association is working on the water supply and sanitary facilities. Both are not available to most families at home. By building a school in this region, we can give many children access to education.

For the new school year starting in September 2024, there will be four classes with a total of around 100 students and additional teachers. To ensure the school's continued operation, we are arranging school sponsorships . The school also plans to expand further in the future, giving more children the opportunity to attend school. We welcome anyone who would like to learn more about the project!

Partnership with Children's Center International

We founded our association "Zusammen für Ghana eV" (Together for Ghana) in Hanover in 2020. Through this association, we support the Ghanaian NGO "Kinder Zentrum International" in building a school near Hobor, Ghana. In close partnership, we work together toward the goal of providing education to disadvantaged children. This is how our collaboration came about:

Our work here mainly consists of fundraising and thus bringing attention to the project in Hobor also in Germany. At the same time, we are in almost daily exchange with the chairmen of "Kinder Zentrum International" in order to plan and coordinate the projects.

The concrete implementation is done by the Ghanaian side on site. At the moment, they are responsible for the construction of the school complex and the future operation of the school will also be managed by "Kinder Zentrum International". Through our commitment here, we want to support this important work in Ghana in the best possible way.
