Food Sharing Program for Street-Connected Children
The Rebecca Foundation, Ghana’s First Lady’s foundation, made a generous donation of rice, meat, oil and tomato paste to cook for the children on the street amid the Covid-19 pandemic. This contributed to our Food Sharing Program, which we started on April 1st in Accra and in Kumasi in collaboration with other NGOs.
Helpline for Street-Connected Children
Street-connected children can contact local key persons who live in our area or work. These people own a phone through which the children can reach our street team at any time.
Great program for our kids in our homes
19 employees are currently living with our children in our homes in Hebron. We have put in have a great and varied program for them including workshops, activities, lessons, etc.
Follow-up calls for children and families
Since we are currently unable to visit the children who are being supported within their family, we have set up a system to ensure that they are doing well by contacting the children, parents and local key people in the communities.
