How to help

How can we achieve the concrete help needed?

• Through money donations to the association.
  This allows to buy the building materials and to pay the workers.
• Internships and volunteer operations in schools and hospitals.
  The German-Ghanaian development aid association has organized several internships for pupils and students at schools in Teshie and hospitals in Accra. A retired female teacher has taughed in a school in Teshie a year free of charge (thank you Renate!).
  We make a detailed briefing befor travelling and make contacts for cheap acccomodation, and cheap caretakers for cooking, washing, shopping and escort services.
  In Patukorpe / Ada at the moment practical courses are not to be recommended for Europeans due to the climatic and hygienic conditions.
• Donations
  The Community Clinic in Teshie needs a complete facility, an emergency power generator and an ambulance vehicle for emergencies. For the Health Station in Patukorpe / Ada is a solar power generator useful.
• Sponsorships
  Whether a project organized by immigrants is successful, depends very much which donation-circle the organization finds access to.
  Projects of the immigrants have the prospect to be successfully completed if sponsorships (eg German church communities) can be found, that sponsores the project continuously to completion.
• Active participation in the association and help in organising
  There are many grants for projects in the Third World. But it is not only our association that has the problem to apply for subsidies.
  Even the application-conditions represent an insurmountable obstacle.
  Without competent help from an expect it is impossible to formulate a justify application.

The German-Ghanaian development aid association organizes its projects even with volunteer activities in order to be able to achieve the main effective help. In Ghana, Teshie Mannoyaa Kpee supports us with the organization.
