A nonprofit foundation has been established with the goal of providing disadvantaged people with equal opportunity so they can realise their full potential.
The "BernHoffman Care Foundation" is an organisation that collaborates with local communities to identify creative, locally-led solutions to empower widows, students, and children in these areas and foster both their personal and economic growth.
Its primary goal is to elevate and empower widows so they may turn their lives around by receiving training in marketable skills.
Additionally, it aims to give impoverished children and students all-encompassing help by relocating them from child labour and slum life to schools and improving living arrangements.
Dr. Bernadette Hoffman, the foundation's founding president, stated that "everyone has the potential" when speaking during the inauguration last Friday in Accra.
It is up to us to figure out how to use the abilities and resources we have at our disposal as a group to change the world.
We took a big step towards making that goal a reality with the establishment of our foundation.
According to her, the foundation is committed to funding programmes that advance economic empowerment, social justice, education, and environmental sustainability, all of which are in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 1, 2, 8, 10, and 11 of the United Nations (UN).
We want to promote inclusive growth and create a better society for future generations through these channels, she continued.
Initiatives
According to Mrs. Hoffman, the foundation just finished educating its inaugural cohort in skill-building efforts, in keeping with its empowerment aspirations.
According to her, 102 participants received training in batik creation, fashion and design, hair styling, beading, soap making, and baking.
She said that her organisation was about to start its morning breakfast trolleys at 15 public schools for kids who might otherwise skip breakfast.
The organisation also has plans to establish food banks that will serve our communities' most disadvantaged residents.
Collaboration
She exhorted everyone to contribute their knowledge, resources, and voices to changing more lives in Ghana and everywhere.
"As we go out on this journey together, I implore each of us to recognise the value of working together.
None of us can resolve the problems facing the globe on our own, but when we work together, we can be a formidable force.
