Started out as a charity basketball tournament to encourage the interest in the sport as soccer is main sport in the country. Our continued initiative to create a cultural bridge from Philadelphia and the local and regional areas of the tristate to Accra, Ghana. This connection will entail peer to peer communication to learn about each other’s life challenges, commons aspirations, language learning through various visual technologies like Zoom, WhatsApp, etc...
We are asking for help in the provision of donations simple items of new or gentle used shoes, books and educational tools for the undeveloped communities and schools with lack of resources. Donations to help the shipping of the cost will also be greatly appreciated as well.
As a proposed long going initiative our goal is to help create a network and a bond with Ghana in creating a cultural fusion of love, peace and unity.
