Get Ghanaian debate team to Oxford!
Donation protected
My name is Neil Walker, and I've spent the summer of 2016 working in Accra, Ghana. Whilst here I've had the pleasure of being paired with Prince Asamoah, a student at the University of Ghana entering his final year.
Prince is not only one of the nicest people I've met, he, along with his partner Aurelia Abane Attipoe, are debaters who have won Ghana national championships as well as numerous others. Prince has competed in Nigeria and in South Africa, and Aurelia is the chair for West African Women in Debate caucus. Both are incredibly worthy causes for money.
Prince and Aurelia will both be going to the World Championships in Amsterdam in December this year. In preparation for this they have been accepted to compete in the Oxford Inter-Varsity Debate Competition in November(http://oxfordiv.com/ ). This highly prestiguous tournament will pit Prince and Aurelia against some of the best in the world, and prepare them on their mission to be the first Ghanaians to win the World Championships.
The money raised will go to purchasing the flights, currently at £450 return each, for both of them. Funding is scarce, and with the World Championships so far away there is no other way for the pair to reach Oxford.
Please join me in helping an incredibly deserving pair realise a dream.
Thank you for reading, and for any help you can give.
