Changing Lives
The ground-breaking work of the Lovey Foundation is having an immense impact on individual children, their families, their schools and the wider community of Bawku. We want to continue to build on this success and to create lasting positive change in the area.
Between July 2013 (the Foundation's launch date) and September 2021 a total of 312 children (157 girls and 155 boys) have been supported to attend the following nine primary schools in Bawku (all those at Kuolimve and Tambiigu began their education in September 2021):
Some 600 children and their families have also benefited from donated clothing shipped over from the UK
in June 2017 together with equipment for the 40 children who started school that September.
Nalfkologa Primary School
Here the proportion of girls supported into primary education has been particularly high. One of the Foundation's aims is to ensure that the importance of educating both girls and boys is widely appreciated.
Vako Primary School
By December 2018, four of the 78 children supported by the Lovey Foundation into this school had progressed into junior high school education at nearby Atuba.
Kuloku Primary School
It was here, in July 2013, that the Lovey Foundation was launched; the ten children presented with their uniforms and other essential equipment began school there two months later. Kuloku is also serving as a trailblazer for progression into the next stages of education, with one of its girls - Awan Monica - becoming the first child supported by the Foundation to start senior high school in September 2017.
