By alleviating the financial burden on families who might otherwise struggle to provide necessary school supplies for their children, the Foundation’s initiatives contribute to SDG 1, which aims to end poverty in all its forms.
Providing these resources helps reduce inequality in education access, ensuring that economic challenges do not prevent children from attending school
Sustainable Development
Impacts Everyone.
Oheneba Poku Foundation's initiatives directly advance several United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), tackling global challenges and promoting sustainable development.
They are not only transformative for the communities but also serve and significantly advance global efforts, creating a ripple effect of positive change that extends beyond the immediate impact of the programs.
The installation of wash stations in schools supports SDG 3 by promoting good hygiene practices, which are essential for the health and well-being of students.
Improved sanitation helps prevent the spread of diseases, ensuring that students remain healthy and can attend school regularly, thus supporting their educational outcomes
The Foundation’s initiatives focus on providing essential educational resources such as exercise books, mathematics sets, and hygiene facilities, ensuring that students, especially in under served communities, have the tools necessary to succeed in school.
By improving access to quality education, the Foundation contributes to achieving SDG 4, which seeks to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all
Ensuring that both boys and girls receive equal access to educational resources is crucial for achieving SDG 5, which aims to achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls. The Foundation’s initiatives ensure that girls, who are often at a disadvantage in terms of access to education, receive the support they need to stay in school and complete their education
The Foundation’s focus on supporting schools in under served areas directly addresses SDG 10 by reducing inequalities in education. By targeting resources to communities that are often left behind, the Foundation helps bridge the gap between different socioeconomic groups, ensuring that all students have an equal opportunity to succeed
The Oheneba Poku Foundation’s initiatives also exemplify SDG 17 by fostering partnerships with local communities, schools, and stakeholders. Collaboration is key to the success of these educational programs, and through these partnerships, the Foundation amplifies its impact, ensuring that the goals of sustainable development are met more effectively.
