Asase Africa Foundation

Asase Africa Foundation Asase Africa Foundation (AAF) is a registered NGO, based in Accra that is dedicated to providing resources to the areas most vulnerable populations.

Asase Africa Foundation aims to support the basic needs and rights of disadvantaged children and their families in every region of Ghana, specifically in the sectors of education access, housing, nourishment, community and fun. AAF began as an international collaboration of volunteers who were inspired by the experience of founder, Ampem. As a child he was disabled and abandoned by his parents. He

was forced to survive on his own in the streets of Accra. As a result, Mr. Ampem works tirelessly to see that Ghana’s children have a brighter future. We are actively taking kids out of child labor, human trafficking and extreme poverty and providing them with education and support. We aim to institute systemic enhancements to the care and quality of disadvantaged children in Ghana. By designing our programs in accordance with our core values (small scale, locally targeted, positive outlook, cooperation, self-reliance, enthusiasm) we are working against the cycles of malnourishment, depression and lack of access that run rampant in our communities.

From Asase Africa to Beyond

At Asase Africa Foundation, we believe that every child in Agbogbloshie carries the power to create something bigger, greater, and better — for the slum, for Ghana, and for Africa as a whole. 🌍

In a community where poverty, flooding, and child labor threaten to close makeshift classrooms before they even open, education is the key.

Together with our partners, educators, and community leaders, we are opening doors to formal schooling, after school classes, and skills training for children who were once considered “unreachable.”

From providing school uniforms, books, and tuition support, to ensuring safe learning spaces free from the dangers of the street, we are giving children the tools to learn, to question, and to dream.

But education alone is not enough. Development means opportunity. It means health screenings, nutritious meals, counseling, and mentorship that keep children in school and on a path to independence.

It means strengthening families so they can support their children’s learning. It means showing every “Asase” — every child of the land — that their future is not defined by where they were born, but by what they are capable of becoming.

This work happens one step at a time. One child enrolled. One family supported. One future changed.

Your support opens windows of opportunity where walls once stood. It turns a flooded room into a classroom. It turns a day laborer into a student. It turns a struggle into potential.

Together, we are building a Ghana where every child belongs, learns, and leads. From Asase Africa, to the rest of Agbogbloshie, to communities beyond — the impact starts here and spreads outward.

Thank you to every donor, volunteer, and partner for your wonderful support. Because of you, the unreachable are being reached. And the future is getting brighter ❤️🙏❤️

Happy Sunday FPP FAM ❤️

Meet Lordina and the boys from Agbogbloshie Slum. All our beneficiaries are doing well and grateful during this season

According to Lordina, every night the rain comes to the Slum, it brings more than water. It brings a fight for safety, sleep, and breath itself.

When the downpour starts, my room floods quickly. Water rises across the floor, soaking mattresses, clothes, books, and the little we own.

On nights when my brother Thomas is not there to help me fetch the water out before bed, I am left alone with it. I stay awake, scooping, bailing, and watching the level rise — hanging on by a thread, fighting for every breath in a space that feels like it’s closing in.

My pillow could tell you the stories I have never found the courage to say out loud. It has absorbed tears I tried to hide. It has witnessed the silent battles: the fear of illness from floodwater, the exhaustion of no sleep, the weight of wondering if tomorrow will be any different, and the nights that felt endless.

Life here is not a joke without support.

But when morning comes and I step outside, I still wear my smile. Not because life is easy. But because strength sometimes looks exactly like choosing to keep going, even when no one sees what you are carrying.

That is what Asase Africa Foundation taught us: to keep going, to never give up, because there is light at the end of the tunnel. For many of us, Asase is the love of a mother — our only hope, our safety net, our support when the rain refuses to stop. We are deeply grateful for Asase Africa.

Our truth of the rainy season here is
1. Flooded homes, rooms turn into pools overnight, destroying bedding, school materials, and the food we store

2. Health risks, children sleep in damp, contaminated water, increasing exposure to malaria, skin infections, and respiratory illness.

3. Emotional toll, fear, sleeplessness, and isolation leave deep marks that cannot be seen from the street.

4. Daily resilience, despite this, children still choose dignity. They still go to school. They still hope.

At Asase Africa Foundation, we walk with these children through every flood. We provide emergency support, safe spaces, counseling, and the reminder that they are not alone. Because no child should have to fight the rain by themselves.

We are grateful and thank you all for the support ❤️🙏❤️

🇬🇭Happy Republic Day, Ghana!

Yesterday, July 1st, we joined the nation in celebrating Ghana’s resilience, unity, and progress.

Republic Day is a reminder of who we are as a people and the shared responsibility we carry to build a brighter future — one where every child can grow up free from danger, exploitation, and fear 🙏.

Our hearts are with every family, child, and community affected by the recent floods across parts of Ghana. We see the displacement, the loss, and the disruption.

We stand with you in prayer, believing for comfort, strength, healing, and hope. To every household navigating flooded homes and uncertain days: you are not alone. stands in solidarity with you.

At Asase Africa Foundation, we believe that every child deserves to grow up in a safe, loving family and in an environment where they can learn, thrive, and achieve their full potential. That belief drives everything we do.

Together with our partners, community leaders, caregivers, and supporters, we remain committed to:
1. Strengthening families through prevention programs, counseling, and economic support so children are not separated from the love of home.

2. Protecting children in Agbogbloshie and beyond from child labor, trafficking, and exploitation by creating safe housing, education, and supervision at LandOfLight

3. Creating lasting opportunities through formal schooling, healthcare, nutritious meals, and mentorship that equip the next generation to lead.

It has not been easy ever since the flooding has impacted our world, our facilities, and the places we serve. Roads are impassable.

Homes are waterlogged. And yet, even as waters continue to rise in some areas, our hope remains. We are hopeful that everything will be alright because we are not facing this alone — we have a nation, a community, and a global family standing together.

As we commemorate Republic Day, let us renew our vow to build a Ghana where every child is cared for, protected, and empowered. A Ghana where safety is not a privilege, but a right. A Ghana where every child belongs.

Together, we can bring relief to families in crisis, hope to children at risk, and support to those who need it most. Thank you for your prayers, partnership, and wonderful support.

We are deeply grateful 🙏❤️🙏

Happy New Month and Happy Republic Day, Ghana! 🇬🇭

Dear FPP Family ❤️

‎We trust this video message finds you well. The recent flooding across Ghana has brought significant challenges to many communities.

Here in Agbogbloshie, the impact has been felt deeply, yet by God’s grace we are safe and managing. Our team, children, and staff are accounted for and continuing our work despite the conditions.

‎In times like these, one truth becomes even clearer: every child deserves the chance to grow up safe, loved, and protected.

Flooding increases risk for the children of Agbogbloshie — displacing families, disrupting schooling, and exposing children to exploitation, child labor, and trafficking. That is why Asase Africa Foundation’s prevention programs are critical now more than ever.

‎For just $2 or $4 a day, you can provide life-changing, holistic care for a vulnerable child.

Your sponsorship directly funds:
‎1. Safe housing, in our Prevention and Foster Homes where children are protected from the streets and e-waste sites

‎2. Education, including school enrollment, tuition, uniforms, books, and remedial support so no child is left behind

‎3. Nutritious meals, daily to support health, growth, and learning

‎4. Medical care, for checkups, treatment, and wellness so illness doesn’t derail a child’s future

‎5. Stability and mentorship, through counseling, emotional support, and spiritual care that restore hope and build resilience

‎Together, we can stop exploitation before it ever begins. Prevention is protection. And protection starts with YOU.

‎Will you join us in giving hope and safety to the children of Agbogbloshie who need it most? Your $2 or $4 a day becomes their tomorrow.

‎Thank you for your steadfast support, prayers, and partnership. We are deeply grateful for you ❤️

‎On this World Day Against Child Labour, millions of children around the world and right here in Agbogbloshie Slum — childhood is interrupted.

Hard work, exploitation, and life on the electronic waste dump site replace the freedom to dream, learn, and grow.

‎A child’s only job should be to dream, to learn, and to grow. That is why every classroom built or renovated matters. Every street connected child matters. Every slum child rescued from hazardous work matters.

Every teen mother trained with new skills matters. Every farmer paid fairly for their labor matters. Each of these actions is part of breaking the cycle that steals childhood and replaces it with survival.

‎This World Day Against Child Labour, Asase Africa Foundation recommits to building the systems that give children back their future. Systems rooted in education, safety, dignity, and opportunity.

‎Let us remember: every child deserves a childhood. A childhood free from danger, filled with learning, play, and hope.

‎Thank you for standing with us in this work. Your support makes it possible ❤️

‎🌍 Nurture and Save Mother Earth — Our Only Home 🌱

‎One planet. One purpose ❤️

‎At Asase Africa Foundation, our commitment to sustainability doesn’t begin in boardrooms or policy papers.

It begins in the soil. It begins where young school children and local farmers tend the land that feeds the world. It begins in communities that protect what they have always known to be sacred.

‎Every small action we take today creates the foundation for a greener tomorrow. As we celebrate World Environment Day 2026, we are reminded that protecting nature is inseparable from protecting ourselves, our health, and our future.

‎Today, we honor the Earth by caring for the people who care for it. From Soil to Soul. We recognize that environmental justice starts with human dignity.

‎Together, let’s reduce what we waste, reuse what we have, restore what has been harmed, and reimagine a future where sustainability is the standard. 🌿💚

‎Protect nature. Take climate action. Be part of the change.

‎Let us remember: this is our planet. This is where Asase Africa and sustainability begin. This is our home — the mother’s love, Mother Earth, and Mother Nature 💜❤️

‎Thank you all for your wonderful support.

‎Hello FPP FAM!

‎Happy new month to you all ❤️

‎As we closed out Godparents and Foster Care Awareness Month yesterday, one truth remains: the need for safe, loving homes does not end when the calendar turns.

‎Children and families in foster care require support, stability, and community every single day — not just during a designated month.

‎Over the past month, we took time to reflect, learn, and stand alongside those who open their hearts and homes. This season has also been preparation as we support our upcoming documentary in , where we will share the real stories of resilience, care, and belonging.

‎We are deeply grateful for the Godparents, foster families, volunteers, and advocates who continue to show up with compassion and unwavering commitment. Your presence is changing lives.

‎As we move forward, let us carry this awareness with us. Let’s continue to support, encourage, and uplift everyone involved in foster care and Godparenting — through both big gestures and small, consistent acts of kindness.

‎If you’ve ever wondered what becoming a Godparent or foster parent could look like for you, we invite you to join us and learn more.

‎Thank you for your wonderful support.

We love you all.

‎A girl’s menstrual period should never be the reason she misses school.

‎In observance of Menstrual Hygiene Day, we spent time with girls in underserved communities and urban slums like Agbogbloshie.

There, we provided education on menstrual hygiene and distributed sanitary pads to those in need.

‎Many of the girls shared that they are sometimes forced to miss school because they cannot afford sanitary pads.

Others resort to unsafe alternatives that compromise their health, comfort, confidence, and dignity. Yesterday was about changing that reality.

‎Every pad distributed represented more than a hygiene product. It was dignity restored, confidence renewed, and another girl empowered to remain in school and focus on her future.

‎This impact was made possible by Asase Africa Foundation partners, donors, and monthly supporters. Your support extends beyond providing pads. It helps girls protect their health, stay in school, and believe in their potential.

‎One pack of pads. One girl staying in school. One future protected. That is transformation Asase Africa is bringing about in the Slum.

‎We are deeply grateful for your unwavering support. Thank you, once again ❤️

Eager to learn? ✏️ 🖊️

The Terra di Luce Association, in partnership with Asase Africa Foundation in Agbogbloshie Slum, is demonstrating that what once seemed impossible becomes achievable when we work together as one united family.

‎This is our commitment as well. Our mission to alleviate extreme poverty by walking alongside local partners is rooted in a continuous desire to learn.

‎We strive to learn how to shift power to local communities, how to partner effectively, and how to tell stories with integrity.

We are always acquiring new insights, and as part of our community, we hope you are on that same journey of growth.

‎What is one lesson you have learned from AAF? Share your thoughts in the comments — we would love to hear from you.

‎Hello AAF FAM! ❤️

‎I hope this message finds you well. Due to the demanding nature of our work and illness caused by mosquito bites, Madam Isabella has fallen ill, which has temporarily paused operations.

‎Working in an urban slum like Agbogbloshie with homeless teen mothers and orphaned preschool children is no easy task.

We commend Madam Isabella for her courage, resilience, and unwavering love for the children of Agbogbloshie Slum.

‎Alone, we can accomplish little; together, we can achieve a great deal. Real change has always been built within community. It happens when ordinary people choose to show up with generosity, compassion, and a steadfast belief that a better world is possible.

‎At Asase Africa Foundation, we witness this daily: people coming together to support local leaders who are creating lasting change in their own communities.

‎Poverty is complex, but hope multiplies when we act together. Join us today in advancing this work. Thank you 😊 ❤️
