Founded 2023

Thrive Works Ghana

 

We are an NGO located in Sunyani, Bono Region-Ghana, which focuses on fostering a mindset and attitude geared towards value creation. We do this by facilitating various apprenticeship and mentorship trainings, as well as providing basic entrepreneurship education to at-risk youth, ages 15 to 25 years.

 

Background

We serve a community with a high youth unemployment rate which causes the youth to turn to drugs, cybercrime, and other social vices.

We believe honest work brings dignity and independence while it enables an individual to also support others in a sustainable way. (Acts 20:33-35)

Because of our values of integrity, innovation, excellence, and service, we go beyond just skills training to offer mentorship and a sense of community to help our beneficiaries develop personally and spiritually.

Vision

To create a capable, credible, and thriving community where everyone has the opportunity to achieve their full potential and be valuable contributors to society.

Mission

To equip underserved youth in Ghana with the skills, attitudes, and mindset they need to be gainfully employed and achieve success in their careers.
