ACTION THROUGH ENTERPRISE

In February 2012, Sarah Albeboure left her job as a primary school teacher to spend a year as a VSO in Lawra in the Upper West Region of Ghana.  Sarah was so struck by the needs of people in that area, their efforts hampered by lack of resources, that she founded a charity she called ACTION THROUGH ENTERPRISE.  The main aims of the charity remain, they are -to improve school attendance; -to provide free school meals, -to help disabled children integrate into community life, -to provide skill training for owners of small businesses.  Responding to an application from ATE, GSA has provided funds for Gombele JHS to buy textbooks (see the entry under GOMBELE JHS).  ATE’s website is ateghana.org
