Many widows in Ghana face financial hardship after the loss of their spouses, making it difficult to afford food, clothing, healthcare, and other essential needs. Those with limited income or dependent children may experience additional challenges in providing for their households. Adjah Cancer Support Ghana aims to support 300 widows from vulnerable communities by providing essential supplies and, where funding permits, livelihood support to help them improve their living conditions.
Widows living in poverty in Ghana may face significant economic and social challenges following the loss of their spouses. Some lose an important source of household income and struggle to pay for food, housing, healthcare, and their children's education. Widows with limited employment opportunities, few savings, or little family support can be particularly vulnerable.
Adjah Cancer Support Ghana aims to assist 300 widows from low-income households by providing support according to their needs and available funding. Assistance may include food supplies, clothing, hygiene products, and referrals to relevant health and social services. Where resources permit, the project may also provide practical skills training or guidance on small income-generating activities to help widows strengthen their livelihoods.
The project aims to improve the well-being and economic security of 300 widows in Ghana. Access to essential supplies can reduce immediate hardship, while skills training and livelihood opportunities may help participants build more reliable sources of income. In the long term, the initiative seeks to strengthen household stability, support the education and well-being of dependent children, and reduce reliance on emergency assistance.
