Turning the Page of Opportunity
The Agatha Ama Awotwe Ghansah Memorial Library was created in hopes of helping redirect the path of the children (especially girls) living in Bokoro, Ghana. This library aspires to be a channel through which children of the village are allowed to realize and explore their untapped potential in an environment where intellectual development is encouraged. Exposing these children to worlds beyond the village would inspire them to set their sights high and never to know their limitsβan opportunity not offered to Agatha Ghansah.
In Memory of Agatha Ama Awotwe Ghansah
1941 β 2015
Agatha Ama Awotwe Ghansah was a life long learner and community leader who believed in the transformative power of education. Her legacy lives on through our mission to provide quality educational resources and literacy programs to underserved communities in Ghana.
Through the AAAGML, we continue her vision of empowering children and adults through access to books, learning materials, and educational opportunities that can change lives and strengthen communities.
Learn More About Her StoryOur Goals
As of now, the library is located in Bokoro's Primary School and serves as a place where students can read, receive tutoring, borrow books, and hang out with friends. This is not where our aspirations for the library end. With the land we have acquired, as we receive more support from donations, we plan on building a Children's Library in the village of Bokoro to further maximize the opportunities that the library offers these children. With the hope of creating a safe space to nurture the mid-stages of childhood development.
