Oh yes, it’s been fun playing on the beach for the past 3 weeks or so...
Or helping Mom with her market stand...
Or doing your nursing
practicums in a hospital...
And, yes, Kundum Festival is OVER. The music was great,
the food was plentiful, the drumming, the dancing!! After all, it’s a festival meant to thank
God for harvest and food and family…what a celebration! But good things do end...

| Lots of drumming, with guys in funny costumes! |
 |
| And so much DANCING... |

After all, your
country is trying its best to get you all educated. As of this year, Kindergarten through all three years of Senior High School is tuition-free and boarding if warranted. Your
schools are jam-packed! But we know, for some of you, help is still needed.
--You may live in an isolated fishing community, way too
far from a government school to reasonably walk and the closest school is
private… like Maako School in a small fishing village...

| Maako Preparatory School |
--Or you may attend a vocational school, which are not yet
tuition-free...

| Male students at Community Development Vocational/Technical Institute who helped build their school's urine diversification/dehydration toilet |
Or you may have done very well in senior high and are
now in nursing or technical college…with substantial costs. Or one of the many other reasons why school may still be difficult...
So, we’ve helped Western Heritage Home, our affiliates in
Ghana, support:
- 2 pupils in Manye Academy
- 2 students in Asanta Nursing
- 1 student in Ghana National College Senior High for the Blind
- 10 students in Axim Community Development Vocational Technical Institute
- 40 pupils in Axim Christ the King Academy
- 15 pupils in Esiama Maako Future Leaders Preparatory School
- 1 student in Takoradi Technical University
We thank our fellow "investors" and our dedicated Western Heritage Home colleagues who have made it possible for
these 71 students to go to school.
OK kids!! Now it's up to you!!
