Help Renovate & Upgrade Vakpo Primary & Childcare Center

Join 72 donors

Join this Mayekoo campaign to help transform education and build a brighter future for the children of Vakpo, in the Volta Region of Ghana. The Vakpo E.P. Primary & Childcare Center faces critical challenges that hinder its mission to provide quality education and a safe learning environment for the children of Vakpo. With aging and dilapidated facilities, students often find themselves learning under trees, exposed to the harsh weather elements. Help us transform these spaces into secure, inspiring environments where children are sheltered from the harsh elements and motivated to achieve their fullest potential.

Rural education systems across Ghana, like that of Vakpo, grapple with a myriad of challenges stemming from underfunding and neglect. The lack of social safety nets and essential resources in Vakpo exacerbates the cycle of poverty. The current state of their classrooms—with roofs that leak, walls that crumble, and windows and doors missing—compromises the very essence of learning and safety. Such conditions are unacceptable, leaving children and teachers vulnerable and hindering the educational process.


Why It Matters

Transforming the Vakpo E.P. Primary & Childcare Center is about more than just upgrading a building; it's about breaking the cycle of poverty through education. Providing children with a safe and inspiring place to learn is the first step toward empowering them with the knowledge and skills they need to build a better future for themselves and their community. This project not only impacts the students directly but also serves as a catalyst for change, encouraging teachers to deliver improved educational experiences. Fostering a conducive learning environment equipped with modern information systems and amenities, enabling students to learn at a competitive rate are all long term goals to reduce poverty through education.
