It's not just education. It's Alma Mater Education.
Free, quality, holistic secondary education for rural Ghana.
We combine academic excellence with agricultural training to give young people the knowledge, skills, and sustainable livelihoods they need to thrive.
The Challenge
Only 40% of rural Ghanaian children continue education beyond primary school. The 60% who don't face poverty cycles, with families earning under $2 a day through subsistence farming. Children are often kept from secondary education to work and support their families.
“Before joining Alma Mater, I didn't think someone from my village could dream beyond farming just to survive.”
