About Ghana

Ghana is in West Africa, located between Cote D'ivoire (Ivory Coast), Burkina Faso and Togo, in the Gulf of Guinea (part of the Atlantic Ocean.) It's a 10 hour flight to London and then about a 8 hour flight to Accra, the capital city of Ghana. As seen on the map of Ghana (below), Accra is located on the Southern coast. It's a bustling African town modern and prosperous by developing country standards. We then head about 15 miles (but could take 1 hour with traffic!) to a developing suburb called Madina.

I thrill in you adventure. I couldn't be prouder or more thrilled at your willingness to reach for your dream and vision for global education and just meeting daily needs in Africa and Mexico. I believe that the result is up to God but the effort purifies the heart and glorifies the Master. I also believe that were if for nothing more that what you are teaching your children (which clearly is not the case) it would be worth it. Love and care from Grandpa.
