Give Me Hope Foundation in collaboration with Glimmer Of Hope Foundation and its partner, Microwatch, organises a mentoring program themed ‘Resilient in New Era’.
The theme resonates with their vision to provide the tools for students to enhance their critical thinking ability, help them study and graduate with the best results.
They believe as contributors to the development of the country, the youth serve as a critical target group for ensuring that the country’s future is bright.
The mentoring program began with a day-long event including career development, inspirational speaking, leadership and civic engagement activities.
The event culminated with Give Me Hope Foundation and its partners volunteering as mentors of some selected students and creating a platform to harness students’ skills and talents despite the challenges they go through.
The students were encouraged to be exceptional in society by promoting individual growth through academic achievement. They were taken through how education can end poverty.
Ernestina Mensah, CEO of Glimmer of Hope Foundation, said, “We also need to boost the confidence of students through constant and consistent engagement with accomplished personalities from across the professional field.
“We must narrow the gap between the student world and the professional world. Our goal is to put them on a path to leadership. We use creative methods to encourage disadvantaged students to excel by offering mentorship, summer camps and after school activities.”
On his part, Wisdom Dordoe CEO of Give Me Hope Foundation said, “It is our aim to boost the confidence of students through constant and consistent engagement with accomplished personalities across the professional field. We must narrow the gap between the student world and professional world.”
The Foundation is calling on institutions, NGOs, philanthropists, donors and advocates to come together and help them organize many of such inspiring programs.
