Building Of Schools In Deprived Rural Communities In Ghana

Education holds the key to sustainable development, preventing of diseases, wars, reduction of poverty in any area.

But in Ghana, especially the rural areas, children of school going age don't attend school. This is not their wish, but because of lack of support (poverty). Also rural areas lack basic educational infrastructures such as classrooms ,exercise books, library, pens, pencils, IT centers, chalk board.

More harmfully, the absence of classroom blocks constrain children to study under trees, putting them hence at the mercy of the weather. Classes close therefore any time it rains. The future of the children in the rural communities will be jeopardized if nothing is done to provide them with quality education.

Hence, to provide a conducive environment for teaching and learning and make it effective and efficient, our organization: Volunteers for Amelioration of Rural Area (VARAS) has initiated school building projects in these deprived communities. Classroom blocks will be build to provide a decent place for effective teaching and learning.

You are therefore called upon to donate towards the realization of the projects.

AMOUNT NEEDED: $15,000 US Dollars

Percentage of funds raised to date = 15%

This is the break down of amount needed:

Cement, Soil, Iron Rod, Nails : $8,000 Dollars

Roofing Sheet : $4,300 Dollars

WHERE IS THE PROJECT LOCATED?

The name of the community is Adaklu Anyigbe. It is located in Volta Region of Ghana (West Africa).

Please lets show some love to these kids of the rural communities by making available a decent place for learning. Donate towards the realization of the construction of the classroom blocks project.

You can also send the needed building materials (Iron rod, paints, nails) as well as getting involved physically by coming to Ghana to volunteer on the construction project.

This School construction project will start in December 2009! Please donate and help us make it a success!

By using the Yahoo! search engine, that is conveniently located on the toolbar, you are helping us raise dollars for the needy in Africa. Every time you click on a sponsored link in the search results (anything listed in the shaded area with bullet points or anything listed on the right side of the page) you are raising 10 cents per click. It doesn't sound like much, but when combined with many people's daily habits, this amount will add up.

This will bring us one step closer to building school houses in rural areas! Please help spread this information.
