Education in Northern Ghana

Quality education in Ghana's Northern Region is a major challenge. Most children cannot attend school due to extreme poverty, parents who are peasant farmers can barely afford basic school materials.

Examination fees, textbook costs, and the difficulty of transitioning to Senior High School create barriers at every stage, leading to very low literacy levels across the region.

We are breaking this cycle by providing materials, scholarships, and support from primary school all the way through university.

Key Education Barriers

Primary School

Exercise books, textbooks, pens, mathematical set, school bag and uniform for one student per term.

Junior High School

All study materials through the critical BECE preparation period for one student.

Senior High School

Full scholarship covering tuition, books, food, transportation, PTA and all examination fees.

Road to B.E.C.E Project

Our first project. We donated study materials to 500 students across 7 schools in Lungni preparing for their BECE examinations.

Scholarship Scheme Launch

9 students selected for full 3-year SHS scholarships. First award of €375 per student given at a ceremony on 22 July 2022.

All 9 Scholars Complete SHS

All 9 scholarship students successfully completed Senior High School. Average investment: ~€651 per student over 6 semesters covering every expense.

Tertiary Scholarship Programme

Three outstanding graduates, Mbenjo Linda, Lapon Mayi Isaac, and Obed Mamalbe Bitadiku, are currently supported through university education. Additionally, in 2022 Nevalak supported Raymond Kwame Nagbija to complete his MSc degree at the University of Twente in Enschede, Netherlands.
