Patrick’s Journey to Hope and Healing
At eleven years old, Patrick chose the uncertainty of the streets over a home that no longer felt safe. What began as a fight for survival would later become a journey toward purpose.
Future of Africa relies heavily on the investment of our core staff, board of advisors, and volunteers; they are the ones who really make a difference.
Future of Africa (FOA) carefully selects committed individuals who are passionate about service and social justice. FOA holds team members to high personal and professional standards, to build an exemplary organizational culture of transformation in Africa.
The FOA team is young, committed, and hard-working. From the streets of Accra to Norviwo Community Center and beyond, our team leads in their responsibilities to improve the wellbeing of children in street situations. The FOA team believes children in street situations deserve to live a life of dignity and purpose.
If you want to become a part of the future, as well as a part of our family, we are always on the lookout for volunteers, or professionals with the experience and skill sets to help us move FOA forward.

From surviving on the streets to studying General Arts in senior high school, Vera’s journey is one of resilience. Once a young girl searching for belonging, she’s now building a future filled with hope and purpose.
In August we hosted our Fresh Start Ceremony and it was one of those days that reminded us why we do this work. We celebrated exciting new beginnings of youth who once spent years on the street without hope and purpose.
