My Motivation
When I first heard about this project, I was immediately excited. I found the idea incredible that we here in our privileged position could use the means given to us to change other life situations for the better. And especially to be able to work so closely with Antonio and Eric. So I wanted to be part of that and do just that. The fact that it was about education was also something I liked right away. I am absolutely convinced that providing access to education is one of the best, if not the best and most sustainable way to help.
I am also motivated by the potential of our project. We are still at the beginning and there is so much more we can and want to achieve.
I am proud to have taken on more and more tasks and responsibilities over time and now in the role of Managing Director I can continue to contribute to the success of this project.
My Qualification
As active members of the association in Germany, we are faced with different tasks and challenges than those members who are active in Ghana. While Antonio and Eric in particular are involved in the practical implementation of the construction in Ghana, we in Germany mainly take care of the structure of the association, the organization of the school construction and the donations.
Antonio and Eric have - unlike us - an education and many years of practical experience in what they do for the association. As young students, we ourselves do not yet have any training or completed studies that explicitly qualify us for the work in the association. We are clearly less experienced in our field of work than Antonio and Eric are. However, it is our daily motivation that drives us to give our best for the association at all times and to overcome challenges with great energy. The common vision of being able to open a school that will enable a better future for many students drives us every day anew to advance the association and the school construction. Since the founding of the association in 2019, we have been able to gather a lot of experience together, through which we have accumulated a lot of knowledge in different areas. This knowledge now helps us to be able to assess processes, avoid mistakes and organize the association. We are always open to criticism and suggestions, through which we can learn and improve. We learn by doing.
