The information centre we built in January 2007, was converted into a community Health Clinic with nurse accommodation and became our first clinic build. Since then we have completed many clinics by successfully working in partnership with the Ghana Health Service, they provided the nurses and drugs whilst we build the building in collaboration with the nurses that will be using it and the communities it will serve.
The Problem
Children die unnecessarily, the absence of a well staffed, equipped health clinic amplifies health disparities, compromises the well-being of community members, and children died, mostly the under 5 year olds as their tiny bodies have not yet created a robust immune system.
Accessible and quality healthcare is fundamental to breaking the cycle of poverty and promoting sustainable development. Local health clinics are indispensable for promoting overall community health, preventing diseases, supporting maternal and child health, and fostering community resilience and development.

Be part of lasting, sustainable change for children in rural Africa
Volunteer Overseas
Volunteering will probably be one of the most worthwhile things that you ever do.
We take around 50 volunteers a year out to Africa. Doctors, Nurses, Teachers, Bricklayers, Mechanics, and students, all pay their own costs and raise money for the projects they work on.
We have opportunities to work on a wide range of projects that save lives and create transformational change.
Without volunteers, many projects would not exist. Discover our volunteer opportunities.
