As the holiday season unfolds, we’re filled with gratitude and joy reflecting on the year’s progress.

Preparations for Christmas are well underway, our team has worked hard to bring cheer to the children. We’ve been busy purchasing clothes and shoes as gifts for the kids, as well as organizing a special family trip to the lake Bosomtwe to create lasting memories together.
At school, the children completed their end-of-term exams, which wrapped up on December 20, 2024. It’s been a year of growth and achievement, and we’re proud of all they’ve accomplished.
Looking ahead, we’re excited to start another session of the SMW (Sunday Morning Woman) training in January 2025.
This program will focus on empowering women through skills training, and similar to this year in hair braiding, nail art, and sewing, helping them gain practical and sustainable skills to support their families.

In addition, we’ve been diligently working on renovations and general maintenance at the Children’s Village to ensure that every home remains safe, comfortable, and welcoming.
As we reflect on this year, we want to extend our deepest thanks for your unwavering support.
Your generous donations and encouragement make all our programs and efforts possible, and we are truly grateful. Wishing you a joyful holiday season filled with peace, love, and warmth.
Sending heartfelt greetings from Ghana Afehyia pa! (Merry Christmas)     

Your support has truly been a game-changer for our students and teachers! Thanks to your generosity, they now have access to additional educational resources and training. The new textbooks have revolutionised learning at our school by offering us the updated versions of learning materials, based Ghana educational curriculum. Plus, the food donations (bags of rice, beans, etc.) have ensured that our students are well-fed and ready to tackle their studies with full energy.

Moreover, our recent teacher training programs have introduced exciting new teaching techniques and strategies. Our teachers feel more effective than ever, which is sparking greater student success in the classroom!

We are immensely grateful for the wonderful support our village school has received. It’s made an enormous difference in the quality of education we can provide. Here’s to continuing this fantastic journey together, enhancing even more opportunities for our amazing students!

We wish you all and loved ones a happy easter time.

It’s 6 March, marking the 67th Independence Day anniversary of Ghana this year. Like in previous years, there will be a nationwide parade held in almost every community in Ghana to mark this event.
At the children’s village and other communities surrounding us, we will be participating as well.

For this, all kids at our community school have prepared and practiced enormously and will be marching through 5 communities, which is also regarded not only to showcase the wonderful talents and skills the kids have but also as an advertisement for the school and the good work loszughana has been doing in supporting free education for especially needy kids.

We thank you all for your unwavering support this year. We couldn’t have come this far without your continuous interest and support. May you have a very Merry Christmas and healthy and Happy New Year. Afehyia Pa!..

We are happy to share with you an exciting update regarding the two kids who have been a part of our project for the past eight years. The twins, George Senior  and George Junior have both successfully completed Junior High School (JHS) education. They will now proceed to higher education on Senior High School level.

We are incredibly proud of their achievements and wanted to express our sincere gratitude for your continuous support and interest in our project. It is because of your generosity that these kids were able to receive the care and education they needed to succeed. Your contribution has made a significant impact on their lives and we cannot thank you enough.

Once again, thank you for your unwavering support, and we are looking forward to sharing more success stories with you in the future.

We are thrilled to announce the commencement of a new session of vocational training for five young mothers. These incredible women, along with their children, have recently relocated to the children’s village, seeking a fresh start and a brighter future.

This year, our vocational training program will focus on three essential skills: sewing, pedicure/manicure, and hair-do. We believe that equipping these mothers with practical skills will empower them to become self-sufficient and provide for their families.

In order to ensure that our new members have a smooth transition and a comfortable stay, we recognised the need for major renovations and expansion in our family house. Our dedicated team has been hard at work, carrying out various renovation works such as painting the family houses, replacing worn-out mosquito nets, and mending the roofs. These improvements not only enhance the aesthetics of the village but also contribute to the overall safety and well-being of our residents.

Kids Educational Needs

Additionally, we have also made significant efforts to provide personal and educational items for both the old and new children in the village. We have purchased books, shoes, school bags, pencils, and other essential supplies to support their learning and development. We firmly believe that education is a vital tool for breaking the cycle of poverty, and we are committed to giving these children the best possible start in life.

We are immensely grateful for the support and generosity of our donors, sponsors, and volunteers who have made all of these initiatives possible. Together, we are making a lasting impact on the lives of these young mothers and their children, helping them build a brighter and more promising future.

As we embark on this new session of vocational training, we are filled with hope and excitement for what lies ahead. We are confident that these young mothers will embrace the opportunity to learn new skills and transform their lives. With your continued support, we can empower more individuals and families, creating a ripple effect of positive change within our community.

Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey. Together, we can make a real difference in the lives of these young mothers and their children.

We wish you a wonderful Easter weekend, Happy Easter!
