Reach Out

A very personable leader and an advocate for Ghana’s most neglected and vulnerable children, TK is committed to building an organisation that solves difficult social issues, and redefines African leadership.

Today, Future of Africa is a highly reputable Ghanaian NGO with an extensive reach and impact. Its vision is an Africa where vulnerable children and youth are protected from abuse and equipped to realise and contribute their created potential. Under TK’s leadership FOA has evolved from a campus club in Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo Canada, to a growing Ghanaian youth movement transforming the lives of vulnerable children in street situations. Its programs have improved the lives of more than 100 children and their families, and impacted over 60 passionate university students.

A strong believer in relationships, TK can be found every week in the streets hanging out with children in street situations or mentoring university students. TK’s childhood experiences growing up in Ghana, and Canada as an international student, helped him to develop his capacity and empathy with which he engages FOA’s work.

He was the recipient of the 2016 and 2017 Most Outstanding Staff award at Ashesi’s annual Ubora Awards. Before Ashesi, TK worked at Wilfrid Laurier University as a Global Engagement Coordinator.

TK was the recipient of the 2011 Student Leadership in Internationalisation Award from the Canadian Bureau of International Education.

  • I made friends easily on the streets because I am very friendly. They taught me how to survive on the streets and engage in bad things.
