(Education,
Development and Training)
Vision for 2014
Dear donors, supporters and
volunteers,
EDT-Africa would like to
show our sincere appreciation to all our donors who in various ways contributed
to our continuing work in identified areas of need in Ghana.
Our heart-felt thanks to the
Granbys, the Shellards (Peter, Steven and families), Purcells, Surtees, Cocque
family, Grace M. and family, the Ziwus, Leung family, Lay Yen and family, Nanou
and family, Auntie Grace O., Auntie Tawiah, Mr. Hammond and family, the
Abiakuse family, Tanko and family, the Smith family, the Abbans ...
A shipment of toys and
educational material arrived in Ghana from the United Kingdom on the 26th
of December 2013. We aim to make the items donated more useful and effective in
the development and learning of children. We are putting in place new
procedures where donated items (e.g. toys) would be grouped to enhance/
improve/ challenge sensory, cognitive, physical, communicative skills etc.
EDT-Africa recognises the
impact of the electronic media and ICT on childhood education in the Majority
world. EDT-Africa therefore aims to collect and donate more ICT based equipment.
This could enable children/ teachers in the various nurseries, schools or
communities to be linked/ exposed to a wider community of learning. Patrons and
donors could then actually link up by social media to the various projects
EDT-Africa is supporting in the various regions of Ghana.
In 2014, EDT-Africa is
hoping to make in-roads into other African countries. We aim to help ailing
schools turn-around into high performing schools. This could be regardless of
its status or standing.
Thank you once again for
helping us transform the lives of those who would otherwise have no opportunity
to have quality books to read or educational/ recreational toys etc. to play
and learn with.
Wishing you all the best in
2014.
God bless you.
On behalf of the EDT-Africa team,
Grace Otu-Plange.
