Mental Health Foundation of Ghana

Hello, and thank you very much for visting my go fund me page! My name is Augustina and last year I decided that my mental health journey should be shared with the public, so on Bell Let's Talk Day I shared my story with thousands of people on my blog that I share with my best friend Esther.  www.afuaonlove.com Our goal is that our blog ,which talks about our experiences and concerns as women of colour (on love,life, and mental health),will become an online magazine that speaks to all people, but from a different perspective. This year, I have been  invited to Ghana, West Africa to speak and to also join the Steering Committee at the Dignity in Mental Health Conference which takes in October. The conference will bring together international, national and local perspectives and will consist of keynotes and plenary sessions followed by skills development workshops. In order for me to attend I will have to purchase my own plane ticket. http://www.mhfgh.org/ The Mental Health Foundation of Ghana is fairly new and thus they have limited funding. It is almost impossible to pay my way there since I live on my own. I work and I am paying off my Human Rights and Equity degree student loans. I will also be donating the remainder to the MHFG.
