Every African child deserves an education. It’s a tragedy, but one we can all address and begin to change. If we all join together and donate to the building of schools we can offer these children hope and a chance at a better life.

The Rural Hopes Foundation’s first project was the construction of a four classroom Senior High School for the children of
Daboya and its wide catchment area in Northern Ghana. Prior to the construction of the Wasipe Senior High School, students had
to travel either 55 miles to Damongo or 40 miles to Tamale to attend school. Most students were unable to make this daily journey.
The Wasipe Senior High School opened its doors with 103 first year students in 2015.

A personal donation of $10,000 from the President and Founder of Rural Hope Foundation (RHF) and with the support of the community (providing labor) and the Local District Assemble providing additional funding, the seed for the Rural Hope Foundation was sown. The Foundation and the District Local Government were able to build a ten classroom senior high school for the children of Daboya and its wide catchment area in Northern Ghana.
Members of the North Gonja District Assembly visited Wasipe Senior Secondary School to interact with teachers and students of the school. The Chiefs and people of Wasipe Traditional Area and North Gonja District Assembly are very much grateful for your singular effort, God Bless.
The Foundation has identified areas in Ghana, Liberia Uganda, Sierra Leone and Central Africa Republic as priorities for school construction. The areas selected represent the most deprived areas in which children are most at risk for dangerous outcomes. In these areas young girls are easily manipulated into sexual slavery and boys are easily deceived into religious militancy.
Through the gift of education, the Rural Hope Foundation, in partnership with local leaders will bring hope and the possibility of a productive future to these children.
