Charity overview

Activities - how the charity spends its money

Orphans of Ghana is set up by volunteers who lived in Ghana supporting orphans. We work with three specific orphanages who try and home hundreds of abandoned, poor and orphaned children aged a few days-18 years old. We aim to improve the lives of all Ghanaian orphans by providing support in health, education and most importantly, providing them with the tools to help themselves.
