About Us

Sara and Heike with their African family The charity is run by former volunteers who worked and lived in Cape Coast, Ghana in 2002. Sara Wrelton and Heike Barker came to Ghana with volunteer organisation 'Teaching Abroad' and stayed with a local family headed by a lady called Molly Yankey whilst in Ghana. Molly owns a rice shop and a roadside drinks bar, but is also concerned for the children of the village where she works. She wanted to give something back to the community, as so many of the residents are deprived and cannot afford many of the basic amenities that we take for granted.

Molly's dream had been to set up a nursery to give the village children an education and better prospects for their future. Whilst still in Ghana - and with generous donations from friends and family of the volunteers - a start was made on building a simple building to house a nursery.

Once back in England the volunteers were determined to continue raising money to carry on aiding the nursery, which Molly was funding as much as she could. At this point Ed Holloway, a friend of Sara's got heavily involved in the organisational side of setting up a charity. Together the team has worked hard to set up and run the official charity called Africa's Future, which continues to support the project and hopes to support many others in the future.

As the team are all volunteers, the charity has extremely low running costs which means that all donations go directly to the project in Ghana. Please support Africa's Future by making a donation now.
