This Saturday, February 25, 2023, a long-held desire came true thanks to the vibrant Awula Foundation launch in Kwashieman, Ablekuma North Constituency of Greater Accra.
The Awula Foundation is a charitable endeavor started by Ewurabena Aubynn with the goals of giving underprivileged children a well-rounded education, giving underprivileged children, orphans, and children of single parents valuable and life-changing mentorship, helping women financially and with stocks, assisting the underprivileged in their communities, and raising a generation of changemakers and nation builders.
