Friendship Fun

Students will learn about life in rural Northern Ghana. They will discover what homes look like and learn about the daily lives of children. They will also develop a better understanding of how far children and families must walk to access schools and hospitals. Using the information they have learned, students will make a plasticine model village, typical of houses and schools in Northern Ghana. They can then make their own community.

The real game of survivor

Beyond disaster relief

“Something that my classmates and I agreed was interesting was that CHF doesn’t just throw money or supplies at people in need, you also teach them how to become self-sufficient and not only that, but you give them a sense of pride and worth. Every single person on this planet, rich or poor, deserves that….Thank you for reminding all of us of that.”
