Inspire to Rise is a non-profit initiative founded primarily to aid children and the youth in Ghana and other parts of Africa into realizing their identity, potential and place in society. We serve by executing community projects that seek to educate, mentor and impact the lives of youth. We help build their physical and mental skills, as we believe that an empowered generation makes the world a better place. We believe that every child/youth deserves a good future. Consequently, we give the youth a healthy start in life. We do whatever it takes to help equip them for the future. Over the years, we reached several school pupils directly through various activities.
Interesting things to note…
What began as one woman’s drive to help people everywhere, grew quickly into a foundation committed to helping children/youth realize their full potential.
