Partner with communities building brighter futures for children
For 25 years, AfriKids has worked alongside communities in northern Ghana to help children grow up safe, educated and able to thrive.
From the very beginning, we have believed that lasting change is built with communities, not for them. That’s why partnership is at the heart of everything we do.
The families, teachers, young people and local leaders we work alongside hold deep knowledge, lived experience and ambitious hopes for their children’s futures. Together, they are creating change that is rooted in communities and built to last.
Our supporters and partners around the world make this possible, bringing resources, networks, expertise and ideas that strengthen and accelerate community-led change.
Together, we are creating opportunities for children, families and communities to thrive, now and for generations to come.
What partnership means to us
Strong partnerships are built on trust, openness and shared values.
When you partner with AfriKids, we will:
- Listen carefully to what matters most to you
- Connect you with work that reflects your values and priorities
- Share regular updates and be open about challenges as well as successes
- Create opportunities for you to meet the staff and communities leading the work in Ghana or connect through events around the world
- Celebrate your support in our reports and on our website, with your approval
- Work together towards long-term, sustainable change for children and families

Hear from our partners
AfriKids is supported by a global community of long-term partners, many of whom have visited our programmes in northern Ghana with colleagues, friends or family, deepening their connection to the communities we work alongside.
We’re known as the AfriKids family.
Some of our partners choose to give trust-based, unrestricted support, allowing us the flexibility to respond to community priorities and invest where it is needed most. Below, you can hear in their own words why they choose to support AfriKids in this way.
“We love AfriKids”
– SABRINA ELBA, AFRIKIDS SUPPORTER
“AfriKids is well organised and focussed. They plan their activities carefully and, through the expertise of their staff, execute them effectively and efficiently. Having visited a number of their interventions in schools, they are clearly having a positive impact. Working with AfriKids has been very fulfilling. It is always gratifying for donors to see that their grant has had an impact. Over the last few years we have built up a very positive relationship, particularly with AfriKids’ staff in Ghana, whom we have visited on a number of occasions.”
– Paul Milner, Trustee at The Zochonis Charitable Trust
“Supporting AfriKids has been a truly uplifting and rewarding experience. I have seen the transformative difference which my donations have made to the lives of disadvantaged children through regular reports, individual case studies and conversations with their in-country team. Seeing children thrive with the help of education has shown me the tremendous difference I can help make to whole communities by even small donations, when these are channelled via wonderful caring and enthusiastic staff, who listen and respond to local needs, empowering entire communities to create lasting change. I am proud to feel part of the AfriKids family.”
– Johnnie, AfriKids supporter
“AfriKids is one of the most inspirational charities that we have ever supported. They make a massive difference to the lives of children in Ghana. We have watched the projects grow over the last decade and are so proud to have been able to help.”
– PAUL, AFRIKIDS SUPPORTER
