Do you long to have an impact on the lives of the people in Ghana?

Each year we offer several mission opportunities. Our former missioners have enjoyed their trips so much that many have returned a second, third or fourth time.

Clean Water and Health Education

We train women on the use of a water filtration system and provide a Sawyer filter and two buckets for each family. One system can provide safe, clean drinking water for a family of four for ten years.

Summer Reading Camps

Each summer we train local teachers and bring volunteer missioners to Ghana to help run reading camps in up to five villages. Children from pre-school to high school ages are provided with a book to take home with them and a hot meal daily during the camp.

Health Care

We run health and hygiene programs in the villages of Akramaman and Twerebo. In addition, we collected funds for pediatric drugs. Last year we were able to provide several thousand doses of worm medication, malaria medication, and vitamins as well as over 200 bottles and tubes of over-the-counter drugs.

Debi Frock, the founder of Ghanaian Mothers’ Hope, first traveled to Ghana in 2004 and she realized then how she could make a childhood dream come true. This is the story of the beginnings of a volunteer-run not-for-profit organization that has, thirteen years later, built two schools and a health clinic, initiated the education of hundreds of pre-school children, empowered mothers to keep their families healthy through education and access to clean water. The results are happy, healthy children learning more every day.
