The Center, when completed, will have local and foreign volunteers who will be tasked to monitor, collect data such as age, identity, place of origin, etc. Volunteers will assess training needs of these Kayayei and recommend appropriate training etc. Such information would also be very useful to our local and international donors in the resettlement program. The Center would be a common place for all Kayayei, give them a chance to know each other and also share information and resources to achieve the resettlement effort. The data collected would serve as a platform and wake up calls for our policy makers to fasten the construction of the Bridgewater Children’s Village Project at Tampion in the Savelgu/Nanton District of Northern Region which aim at bringing together needy girls from the three Northern Regions for a purposeful education that will enable them to be self sufficient and economically independent. When completed will stem-tide the migration of girls to the south and forcefully resettle especially the school going age for a better generation.

Humble Experience

5.0/ 5

We volunteered with Mr. Yahaya’s, one of many, organizations called the Bridgewater Project. He allowed us to volunteer however we chose to. Therefore, we decided to host a talent contest for the kids, in which we provided prizes for the winners. We also hosted a Black Doll Fashion Contest. Mr. Yahaya explained to us that that was the first time the little girls had ever seen dolls that looked like them. That broke my heart, but we were also happy to be the ones to reveal a reflection of beauty that looked like them. The little girls were so creative and took this contest to the next level. These dolls turned out fierce! If these dolls could walk, they would have been strutting the runway. We provided small gift bags for the children, which was the hardest thing to go through, because we ran out of gifts bags and the ones who couldn’t get anything were so heartbroken 🙁 . If you choose to do something like this, keep that in mind.  The kids laughed, played and danced and made me realize that “poor” is just a state of mind. What a humble experience!

Mr. Yahaya provided us with a car service the entire time. We had plenty of down time to visit museums, and we also were able to visit the Elmina and Cape Coast slave castles. This a must do, for not just people of color, but for everyone.  Our driver stuck to our side. We felt safe with him. Adjea became such a brother to us that we showered him with hugs and kisses when he dropped us off at the airport.  Such beautiful people. Yahaya is a political leader in his community, and you can automatically see it by the amount of respect he is given by the people.
