02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

We continue to tackle child labour at its source: poverty and lack of opportunity. Every farmer who joined our partner, the Chamber of Farmers Ghana, agrees that they will ensure their children attend school and that their learning is not disrupted by them having to become involved in child labour to supplement the family income. Beyond fair pay, we fund scholarships for high school and university education—including international opportunities—so farming families dream bigger. The result is to eliminate child labour by addressing the root cause, and have children in classrooms, provided with the education they rightfully deserve.
