Contribution

Established the organization legally in US and Ghana as a non-profit, built the brand, website, and social media presence, and developed a service learning program that colleges and universities around the world could enroll students in to complete for-credit or internship requirements.

Trained local staff to run operations on the ground in Ghana but also to take over international partnerships, marketing, and financial management. The organization now is largely run by Ghanaians who originally started as students receiving support from the organization.
