Our small grassroots organization dedicated to helping the most vulnerable children in the world is looking for a web designer to help us complete our webpage. It has been designed but needs impromements and a whole lot of content added. The ideal candidate has a few extra hours a week to hopefully complete the content addition in a short period of time, has extensive knowledge of wordpress and integrations, and has an eye for layout and design. Your engagement has the potential to increase our engagement with the world and potential donors, and help us help more children.

Mission Statement: Africa Youth Rising is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization operating in Dodowa, Ghana dedicated to providing young people and their families the education, healthcare, and resources they need to escape the relentless cycle of poverty and create multi-generational change. Description: Ultimately, it is our express goal to identify root causes that force families to abandon children to orphanages and disrupt those patterns. We are seeking the elimination of predatory orphanages that are actively harming children for their own gain in favor of stable, self-sustaining families and communities. This first of its kind free center is a nexus of child protection and women’s empowerment. Adom Fie (Grace House) empowers the mothers of disabled children by giving them the opportunity to seek gainful employment while their child is mindfully tended. The Center also provides essential interventions including daily occupational therapy and child specific assistive devices. The aim is to stabilize families with disabled children thus stopping the high flow of disabled children into orphanages. We are a duly registered US and Ghana Nonprofit, working with Ghana Health Services, Ghana Education Services, and the Ministry of Gender and Social Protection.
