About the project
TEACHING OF MATHEMATICS, SCIENCE, ENGLISH, ICT AND FRENCH
📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Our partner is a non-governmental (NGO) and was formed in July, 2002 by six volunteers who realized that tertiary students have nothing to do during their holidays; and so thought of making useful that period by mobilizing these students to help their individual communities, other Ghanaian communities in Ghana and the world at large.
This organization over the years in existence has undertaken projects that has caused change in our local communities. The projects so far undertaken include:
• School construction and renovation
• Construction of community centers
• Teaching of Mathematics, English, Science and French in underprivileged schools
• Environmental Projects (Tree planting)
• Support services to Orphanage/Aged Homes
• Women Empowerment
• Inter-Cultural Exchange Programs
