PROVIDING EDUCATION TO IMPOVERISHED OR ORPHANED CHILDREN IN GHANA
Through her travels, Jo Hopkins had the opportunity to travel through the Volta region of Ghana, West Africa. While visiting and volunteering at an orphanage there, she instantly fell in love with the children. While they had almost nothing, their happy spirits where overwhelming. Most of these forgotten children had never received any type of education and it was clear they would likely never escape their impoverish circumstance. From this experience the One by One Foundation was born.
Jo and Randy, through the One by One Foundation, and with your support, believe that with an opportunity and access to adequate education, food and clothing, we can help break the cycle of poverty in Ghana, West Africa and make these children responsible and contributing members of their villages, communities, country and the World.
By supporting the One by One Foundation, you make it possible to provide for and help cover costs associated with educational tuition, vocational training, room & board, supplies, uniforms, medical and miscellaneous necessities for these children & young adults.
A letter from one of our students:
Hello Mama Josephine,
My life has nothing to account for if you are not on this planet. From the time you set your eyes on me, was the day of liberation from suffering. I wish someone, somewhere, could be like you, or take your footsteps to eradicate all form of pain from this world. Any time you come to Ghana, I find much greater happiness in life. Words cannot express how thankful I am to all that you are doing for me. May God richly bless you all of the days of your life. YOU ARE MY GREATEST TREASURE MAMA JOSEPHINE.
BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES IN GHANA WILL DONATE 100% OF NET PROFITS TO THE ONE BY ONE FOUNDATION!
Since becoming involved in Ghana, other opportunities have presented themselves which will allow Jo and Randy to help additional students, the local communities, and continue to fund the foundation's primary mission in Ghana. One such business opportunity is the ONE BY ONE CLOTHING STORE.
Jo and Randy have created a clothing store that will employ several of the past students, as well as local community members, to manufacture, market and sell their clothing. This will not only help bring jobs and purpose to many of the students and the community members.… the ONE BY ONE FOUNDATION will also benefit… as 100% of the net profits will be donated back to the ONE BY ONE FOUNDATION.
Check out the full clothing store at www.OnebyOneClothing.org. or click our SHOP link to see some select items available for sale through the One by One Foundation.
