Project region Ashaiman / Ghana Africa
Project title Hope for the children of Ashaiman
Project duration: 2013-2014
The children and young people had only experienced hunger, illness and oppression in their young lives. They have not received love and care. They come from broken families, live on the streets or grew up as orphans.

In our project, the children not only receive a sound school education, but their social skills are also strengthened and encouraged. Football training teaches children and young people values such as teamwork and fair play, but also discipline and self-confidence.

Almost 1,000 children benefit from the construction of the school and the soccer field. With the construction of the school and the football field, urgently needed jobs were created for the local population in the region, thus improving the overall situation of the people in this region in the long term. This school project is led by a local project team and supported by the provincial government.

This project is our contribution to
the following UN Millennium Goals:
MDG 2
The 8 Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) of the United Nations were formulated and adopted in 2000 by a working group made up of representatives from the UN, the World Bank, the OECD and several non-governmental organizations. LEARN MORE
