Fund raising for kids in Ojobi
Donation protected
In exactly a moth from today, i will be making a donation and would like to appeal to you all...
I chose education as a starting point, and singled out the 'Bright future International School situated in the rural area of Ojobi, Gomoa Buduatta, in the central region of Ghana.
The school was started by a lady (Ruth) and her husband, who unfortunately passed away a few years after they had started the school.
The school has a total of 250 children from kindergarten through to Junior High School (from ages 3-14), with 10 volunteer teachers.
They have little or no facilities ie. Proper classrooms (wooden shacks serve as classrooms), desks (2/3 kids sharing one desk), teaching/learning materials ( one text book is passed around a class of 30). No running water or proper sanitation (they make a 20 minute walk to fetch buckets of water for their daily use).
The kids pay 0.50c (ghc2.00) daily for transportation and two meals.
This is the only form of income generated to keep the school running as the parents cannot afford to pay fees or any other expenses.
