Nourishing 500 Children in Ho, Ghana
We partner with the Ghana Health Service to fund community health and outreach projects at the H.O.P.E. Center, a primary health clinic in Ho, Ghana. The principle project that began in 2006 is used to fortify the diets of malnourished children in the Ho area with protein and vegetable supplements in conjunction with promoting sustainability through seed distribution.

Saving Children Sold Into Slavery in Ghana
IOM Ghana's counter-trafficking project was launched in 2002 and has supported rescue, rehabilitation, return, reunification, and reintegration of 731 formerly trafficked children by now. Children were sold into slavery by their parents to fishing industry and now study in school and live in a safer environment. Before being rescued, these children were often abused, malnourished, and forced to work extremely long hours in deplorable conditions, without no access to medical care and education.
