We were honored to welcome members of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.™ fraternity and alphainternationaltravel team to BASICS International. It was a day of connection, laughter and meaningful moments with the children. From spending time with the kids and making memories, their presence reminded us of the power of showing up and giving back.
We are deeply grateful!!

We’re grateful for your kindness, generosity, and willingness to spend meaningful time with our kids.
Thank you, Rochester family and friends, for showing us that sometimes the greatest gift is simply showing up, sharing joy, and giving back.

Our children in Chorkor are travelling beyond their community—without leaving the room! 🌍🥽

Through virtual reality, they are exploring African safaris, experiencing thrilling roller-coaster rides and discovering new countries, cultures and places they may have only imagined.

This is more than entertainment. It is about expanding their world, sparking curiosity and helping them dream beyond what they can currently see.

At BASICS International, we believe every child deserves opportunities to explore, learn and imagine a future without limits.

Breaking Cycles. Building Futures.

World Humanitarian Day
Humanity begins with compassion, and compassion becomes meaningful when we turn it into action.
Today, we celebrate the spirit of service and the power of communities coming together to support one another. We’re grateful for every opportunity to lend a helping hand, create positive change, and make a difference where it matters most.
Together, we can build stronger, more caring communities.

From snacks to saving and
everything in between, let’s see how they would spend their GHC10 (about US$1).
Watch, listen and tell us: What would YOU do with GHC10 for a day?
