Foundation Launch & Northern Region Support

ExGlo Foundation's inaugural project supporting students and schools in northern Ghana through educational resources and fee assistance.

Project Details

The foundation successfully launched on August 24th, 2017, marking the beginning of our mission. Our first major initiative focused on northern Ghana, where we provided crucial support to students struggling with school fees. The project included distributing books and stationery while organizing health screenings and health talks for communities like Wupiense. This foundational project established our three-pillar approach of education, healthcare, and community support.

Upper West Region Schools Outreach Program

Comprehensive support program for four senior high schools focusing on menstrual hygiene, career guidance, and educational resources.

Project Details

In April 2019, ExGlo expanded its reach by visiting four strategic schools in the Upper West Region. Beyond providing essential educational materials and sanitary pads, the foundation conducted impactful talks on goal setting, personal development, character education, and menstrual hygiene management. This holistic approach addressed both immediate needs and long-term personal development, establishing a model for comprehensive school support.

Ateaso Community Development Initiative

Multi-faceted community support program combining skills training, educational resources, and infrastructure development in Central Region.

We trained community members in liquid soap production for livelihood, while the local school received books, stationery, and much-needed furniture for students and staff. The project concluded with health talks and clothing donations, demonstrating our integrated approach to addressing education, healthcare, and economic empowerment.

Skills Development Training Program - Tamale & Srafa

Intensive entrepreneurial skills training initiative targeting young women in Northern and Central regions based on comprehensive needs assessments.

In Srafa, 200 women learned skills to generate income during farming off-seasons. We simultaneously supported Srafa's basic school with marker boards, furniture, and facility repairs. This dual approach of skills training and educational infrastructure support created a comprehensive community development model.

Upper Regions Female Students Empowerment Program

Targeted skills training program for female students in two schools across Upper East & West regions to promote financial independence and reduce teenage pregnancy.

This program addressed critical challenges facing young women in northern Ghana. Targeting Daffiama SHS and Our Lady of Lourdes Girls' SHS, we provided comprehensive training in liquid soap, bar soap, and bead making. By focusing on female students, the program aimed to promote financial independence and reduce teenage pregnancy rates. The enthusiastic reception from headmasters and students validated the program's relevance and impact.

Nayire Community & Sandema Hospital Support Initiative

Dual-focus program combining community skills training with maternal healthcare support in Upper East Region.

This initiative demonstrated our refined approach to community-responsive programming. In Nayire, we conducted liquid soap production training for 400 participants, complemented by clothing distributions. The program then extended to Sandema District Hospital, focusing on maternal health through donations to the maternity ward and NICU. This dual approach of economic empowerment and healthcare strengthening exemplified our evolved strategy for creating lasting impact.

Kayoro Critical Health Services Outreach

Partnering with the Kassena-Nankana West District Health Directorate to deliver essential medical screening, education, and hope to an overlooked community.

Project Details

ExGlo Foundation conducted a transformational health outreach in Kayoro, a vibrant village in the Kassena-Nankana West District of the Upper East Region. Following a thorough needs assessment, we worked closely with District Health Director Mr. Lawal Alhassan to design a screening program addressing the community’s most pressing concerns. Within two days, our volunteers and 25 health professionals screened around 500 residents for malaria, typhoid, hypertension, respiratory infections, and skin diseases, alongside Hepatitis B screenings for children.

The intervention highlighted the tough reality in Kayoro: identifying 76 malaria and 10 typhoid cases, and managing multiple hypertension cases on site. The outreach removed substantial financial barriers to care, providing on-the-spot NHIS renewal via mobile phone for expired cards. Despite local challenges such as minimal staffing and unreliable electricity, the community responded with profound gratitude. The program's success was driven by dedicated individual donors and institutional partners, including Medicas Hospital, Hutch Pharmacy Limited, St. John's Hospital and Fertility Centre, Vidol Fashion House, The Ghana Report, and I-ZAR Group.
