WHO WE ARE We are EduAfrique a not-for-profit group committed to creating an equitable world in which everyone has access to basic human needs. We contribute to bringing clean water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) programs to communities in Ghana, Africa. We believe access to WASH infrastructure and services is a prerequisite for changing and lifting communities out of a cycle of disease and poverty.      WHAT WE DO Thanks to donations from people just like you, we partner with communities in Ghana to provide better access to WASH. In 2013 we conducted a 6-month health promotion program in Asamang, Ghana. Through this work, our eyes were opened to the social and economic consequences of lack of WASH in the realms of education and health. Following a set of fundraising events in 2016, we were able to partner with a community in the West of Ghana - called Bronikrom - in January 2017 to construct a composting toilet for the community.

The toilets you helped us build at Bronikrom, in the West of Ghana has recieved the final cosmetic touches! EduAfrique will stay in touch with the community to educate them comprehensively on keeping sanitation-related diseases and deaths at bay. Thank you, AWESOME PEOPLE, for contributing to this🙏🙏🙏 The project was completed in Bronikrom in the West of Ghana. The community provided the labour and EduAfrique covered the material cost of the building. The project was managed by Ramatu Soaley, Joachim Danbur, Kwame Osei-Amo and Kwabena Asare Bediako. Due to the community not having had any skilled labourers, a builder from Asamang (a small town in the South of Ghana) was hired to help.

Thank you for giving the gift of dignity.  Your donation will help bring improved sanitation and hygiene to a community in Ghana. All donations help cover the cost of materials, training materials, labor,  and transportation. All our team are volunteers so 100% of donations go directly to projects.  We would love you to join us to make it happen this year! (But, if you only give to such programs once a year, and you've already contributed to another program, then please, think of us next time.)

Fundraising love: Converting dreams into reality.
