Program Details

Our project, _Tears of Young Orphans Shall Stop International_, is a community‑focused NGO established in 2025 to uplift vulnerable children and orphans in Ghana’s Greater Accra Region (Ada East & Ada West Districts) and Volta Region (South Tunu District). We run three main programs:

1. Education & School Infrastructure – building/renovating basic schools, supplying uniforms, books, and daily “chop money” for children, and assisting local teachers.

2. Health & Welfare – supporting health‑care initiatives and covering medical expenses for sick children.

3. Youth Empowerment– skills training, community outreach with food & clothing distribution, and football (soccer) coaching to inspire local youths.
Volunteers gain hands‑on experience in construction, teaching, and community development while immersing in Ghanaian culture (including learning the Dangbe language) and enjoying weekend cultural excursions. Upon completion, participants receive a certificate highlighting their contributions.
