Supporting Children’s Education in Ghana

We are excited to launch a new project on World Teachers’ Day 2019, to support the teachers at Meyah Preparatory School in Medie, Ghana.

The school was started in 2004 by Moses and his wife Janet, after they retired. They saw that many children in Medie did not have the opportunity to go to school and they decided to start a school with Moses’s pension. The school was initially for children between 1 and 5, but throughout the years, it has developed and grown, and now children from Kindergarten to Junior High School attend. Currently, there are 150 pupils and the school is still growing.

Meyah is now looking for help with sponsoring some of its teachers. If CHW can raise £800, this will cover a percentage of some of the teachers’ salaries over the next few months. If you would like to contribute, you can do so here.

Teachers play a vital role in providing children with an education and any support for this project will give the children at Meyah Preparatory School a brighter future.
