Ahaspora is dedicated to ‘giving back’ to our community. As such, Ahaspora inaugurated its flagship mentoring program in December 2013 for selected senior secondary students in Ghana.
The (big-brother, big-sister type) mentoring program, which provides professional and personal growth for our mentees, begins with a day-long event including career development, inspirational speakers, leadership and civic engagement activities, where Ahaspora members volunteer as mentors of the selected students. The mentoring program is themed “Changing Mindsets, Channeling our Future”. The theme demonstrates our vision of providing tools for our youth to enhance their ability to think critically, take on leadership roles, and be engaged as citizens in the development of Ghana. The youth serve as a critical target group for ensuring that the country’s future is bright.
