ABOUT US

About Chance for Africa

We believe access to technology should not depend on where a child is born.

OUR MISSION

Education and opportunity through ICT

Chance for Africa works to open up education and opportunity for children, young people and disadvantaged communities in Ghana through ICT skills and equipment.

OUR CHARITABLE PURPOSE

Our principal objective is to encourage community development among children, young people and disadvantaged population groups in Ghana. We do this by giving them greater access to context-specific education programmes focused on Information and Communication Technology (ICT) skills.

OUR APPROACH

How we work

Context first

We provide what local schools and young people actually need, from computers to safe electrical fittings.

Practical and lasting

Equipment is set up to be internet-ready and suitable for remote learning, so it is useful from day one.

Every penny to the work

We rely entirely on donations and do not hold reserves.

GOVERNANCE
