With an unwavering commitment to elevating literacy rates and enhancing educational opportunities in Ghana, the Girls Education Initiative of Ghana (GEIG) in collaboration with X-Fellows is proud to announce the launch of “Project Dream” on May 17, 2024.
This pioneering initiative is a support program for underprivileged students who will be inducted into the fellowship of the program and be expected to give back to their communities in the future, through their own selected initiatives.
The Project Dream initiative aims to provide educational scholarships to underprivileged children across Ghana, focusing on those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, particularly in areas with high school dropout rates.
Statistics from the Ghana Statistical Service reveal an average literacy rate of 69.8%, highlighting a significant need for increased educational support. “Project Dream” seeks to address this by not only sponsoring school fees but also equipping students with essential learning materials.
According to the founder of Ms. Elizabeth Patterson, “Since our launch in 2014, the team at Girls Education Initiative of Ghana has worked tirelessly to promote our cause.
We are fortunate to have volunteers and staff from all walks of life who bring their unique expertise and resources into everything we do.
This is what enables us to achieve our goals year after year. Our partnership with X-Fellows to launch this initiative aligns with our mission and will enable us to reach and impact more girls and help them achieve their dreams.
The launch will be supported by a webinar, digital campaign, and partnership events with key stakeholders, including local NGOs and community leaders to create awareness and raise funds.
The initiative is set to change lives by offering children the tools to unlock their full potential, thus fostering social and economic development within their communities.
Beneficiaries will be selected after a screening process and those who qualify will be offered full scholarships for their entire tertiary education.
According to the Founder of X-Fellows, “Sponsoring a child’s education is a transformative act of generosity that breaks the cycle of poverty, fosters personal growth, and promotes social and economic development.
It creates meaningful connections and relationships while offering children the opportunity to unlock their full potential and build brighter futures for themselves and their communities. We are delighted to partner with GEIG to bring this opportunity to underprivileged girls in Ghana.
Join us in supporting “Project Dream” and help turn the tide against educational disparity in Ghana.
