Help Us Sustain and Expand Our Impact
The Hope Education Project has completed its first pilot program in Tamale, Northern Ghana, reaching over 300 students in three junior high schools and 200 out-of-school girls and women in surrounding communities. With five modules delivered across schools and adapted for community settings, the response has been immediate and encouraging.
We need your support to continue
Your gift enables us to:
- Retain and support our team in Tamale whilst we apply for grants
- Pay the office overhead, including accountancy and audit fees
- Respond to community requests for more sessions and presentations
- Deliver the HEP program into the communities of other NGO’s
As we work to secure long-term funding, your donation will help us cover the essential costs of keeping this work going: staff salaries, local facilitator support, outreach into new districts, and training materials for NGO partners. With your help, we can continue to train others, deliver school sessions, support survivor advocates, and protect more vulnerable communities.
We are actively in touch with local leaders, schools, community groups, and frontline organisations who want to partner with us. Your support keeps the doors open while we build toward broader, long-term impact.
If you are a UK taxpayer, Gift Aid adds 25p to every £1 you give, at no cost to you.

Why Now?
Students are speaking up. Women are recognising their own risk and telling their stories. But without core support, we risk losing the momentum we’ve built.
“I was at the salon getting my hair made when I heard a girl behind me say, ‘Be Smart! Be Strong! Say No When Things Feel Wrong!’ I turned around, thinking maybe she’d been in one of our sessions. But she hadn’t — her sister had. Her sister taught her the slogan at home.” – Mariama Adam, Program Manager, Hope Education Project
