This project has been paused since mid-2025, when our project leader Vivian fell ill. We are keeping this page live so you can see the incredible impact we were making. We hope for Vivian's swift recovery so we can continue changing lives in Ghana. In the meantime, any donation intended for the Ghana TVET project will be redirected to our other active projects. Thank you for your continued support.
Support the Ghana TVET Project
Empower young women in the north of Accra with vocational training in baking, cake-making, sewing, and dressmaking. By supporting this project, you’re helping women gain skills to build a brighter future for themselves and their families.
Together We Can Make a Difference
Why this project matters
The power of vocational training
Vocational education provides young women with essential skills to earn a living, breaking the cycle of poverty and creating opportunities for self-reliance. In the north of Accra, many women lack access to such training, making the Ghana TVET project a lifeline.
How we’re making a difference
- Hands-on training: Students receive expert instruction in baking and sewing.
- Career readiness: Graduates leave with the skills and confidence to start their own businesses.
- Ongoing support: Monthly funding of £200 helps sustain the programme and provides necessary resources.
