About Us

Hopeworks Ghana is a Non-Profit Organization committed to empowering the youth (especially the disadvantaged) to discover their dreams. Hopeworks Ghana is recognized by the Government of Ghana through the Department of Social Welfare as International NGO with Registration number: D.S.W./7623 (Department of Social Welfare, Government of Ghana). Our focus areas include economic empowerment, charity, Disability/Autism and health. The organization’s programmes and activities are funded through its own resource mobilization initiatives and donor communities and individuals.

We build confidence by giving beneficiaries the opportunity to succeed because they are capable of achieving their dreams and aspirations in life. We build strong and lasting relationships with individuals and corporate bodies (governmental, commercial and faith-based organizations) to help us achieve our goal.
