Who We Are
Village of Hope is a Ghanaian non profit that runs a residential children's home, a hospital, an elementary school, a high school, and a training program for street-connected teenagers and other disadvantaged youth. The skills taught at the training institute include sewing, leatherworks, kente weaving, hairdressing, and auto mechanics. At the end of training they receive equipment and some seed funding to run their own small businesses.
Past trainees, current trainees and their instructors supply the products for "Off the Street by Village of Hope" to raise funds to train more youth and get them off the streets, and generate income for those now working on their own.
