Mission

In all societies and in all conditions, there is no better way to raise the next generation than a family. Ghana Make a Difference (GMAD) provides vulnerable children with a place they can call home as we work to reintegrate them with their biological family or to place them in a new family. We protect children who have been rescued from child trafficking, abandonment or who have other special needs. We preserve families and make a sustainable difference by providing a path to self reliance through shelter, vocational training, life skills, education and medical care.
