• Empower the poor in rural areas through developing libraries, pre-school centers and maintaining literacy centers and programs.

• Develop community, small-scale businesses to generate cash income and employment to improve the community’s living standards. A portion of net income is set aside to maintain the community’s library, pre-school and literacy centers and other social services projects.

• Enhance Americans’ literacy of African culture and history through projects which utilize contemporary and traditional African art to build awareness of the peoples of Africa.

We are a group of like minded individuals from various backgrounds and countries. We solicit donations to promote the project ALAD sponsor in the rural communities in Ghana;  one hundred percent (100%) of all donations go directly to the implementation of these projects.

Your contribution to ALAD will:

• Promote community self-help which fosters literacy and empowerment.

• Develop cash income generating enterprises, conceived and implemented by local people and local institutions.

• Educate American communities about the history and culture of Africa.

Please make your tax deductible contribution to ALAD  to assist us in our efforts.
