The project was established in Accra, Ghana by the Founder, Billa Mamud in 1998. There are 26,000 children living in street situations in Accra, Ghana.(CAS 2007)

The economic difficulties in Ghana mean 30% of the population still live below the international poverty line of US$1.25 a day.

We work in Teshie, which is one of the poorest inner city communities within Accra and draw children from LaBadi where the project started.

Founder

Billa Mamud is the founder of the project. He started under a mongo tree in Appapa, LaBadi with a handful of children. Now the project has over 120 coming to our centre in Accra and 136 that we have sent to state school.
