Madamfo (meaning “my friend” in Fanti) is a Netherlands-based nonprofit organization that is reconnecting with Anansi Education this year in a meaningful way. In a cooperative venture Madamfo has enrolled seven of our Anansi graduates in various University programs. Their financial commitment to these seven students will continue until their graduation from University. Madamfo has provided them with tuition, room and board, laptop computers and a stipend.
In past years when tuition fees were high for high school students in Ghana, Madamfo funded 17 Anansi/Madamfo students to increase the number of young people we were able to serve. Welcome back, Madamfo, and a warm large thank you for your interest and faith in our program and our students and for making it possible for these graduates to reach their potential. Medase Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
