WAVE WEDNESDAY It’s Back to School time and WAVE is conducting a fundraiser to purchase school desks for the 7th grade class that will be moving into the new Jr. High that was just built. The desks are $50.00 each. We need 40 desks to accommodate each child. With each donation your name will be printed on a desks and the chief of the village will send you a thank you letter. Let us show the children how much we want them to succeed by having a proper classroom. Donations can be made on the link below or through, WAVE4kids.org Please share.

WAVE WEDNESDAY I would like to share a post that was on FB 8 years ago! It’s amazing to read how much WAVE has grown and changed the lives of the children in the village of Godenu. Since that article in the Ghanaian newspaper, WAVE has donated another 140 desks, installed playground equipment, completed 3 school blocks for K through 6 grade, built a 7 stall toilet facility a recently built a new Jr. High School. Not to mention the last trip to the village was my 19th visit to see the children. Thank you to everyone who’s donations have made this possible.

WAVE WEDNESDAY Great news from the village of Godenu. The chief submitted the paperwork to the government for approval to make the new Jr. High a government school. Considerations were: the number of children who will attend, distance to the other Jr. High in the area, will our school impact the attendance of the other school, can the government supply books, do they have teachers and is the building ok. A team from the government came to the village to do an inspection last week. Everything was approved with high scores. The team was very happy to see the work that has been done and said they have never seen the quality of the new Jr. High in the entire district. Thank you to the chief, Togbe Osei III for all your great efforts in getting the school built. The school will open in September for the 7th graders.

WAVE WEDNESDAY: To all the mothers around the world, WAVE wishes you a Happy Mother’s Day. I believe the children are our future, teach them well and let them lead the way. WAVE4kids.org.

WAVE WEDNESDAY Education is the best gift we can give any child. Thank you Salu, Bob, Fr. Kwame, Elaine, Lori, Melissa and Rosemary for teaching a class when you went to the village. Let’s keep sharing our knowledge to children all over the world. The children in the village have learned so much with people joining me on my trips to Ghana. When I first went to the village, the children didn’t know anything about the US, where Ghana was on the map; because they had never seen a map of the world. Through your donations, WAVE has change the lives of these children. Thank you. WAVE4kids.org. Please share.

WAVE WEDNESDAY. The children are back to school from their spring break and happy to return to their classrooms. The repairs are done and the rooms have been cleaned. Thanks again to all the donors who made it possible for the children not to miss any school. Amazing how fast a building can be repaired. In Africa there is no insurance to deal with or building permits. Hence, everything was restored to new in one week. Your prompt response to WAVE’s emergency fund made it all... possible. The school year will finish in July and when school resumes in September the 7th graders will be in the new Jr. High School. It’s exciting times in the village. The next project will be to furnish the 7th grade with desks. I will be going back to Ghana in October. If anyone is interested in going, please contact me. Blessings to everyone for all your support. See more
