About Us
Some active youths have
found a creative niche; carefully translating the spirit of care to the
underprivileged children in Christian Village, a suburb of Accra.
Mawulolo is what they
call this engine. Mawulolo translates God’s
Greatness, in the Ewe language. The group works around the clock, helping
many more needy individuals to greatness; devoid of their menial social
backgrounds.
History
Embarking on the breezy
and lively Christian Village suburbs, you would come across a number of prime
locations and exotic business setups.
But there’s more than
meets the eye; a shameful hidden truth long-ignored. One needs to travel
down these exotic lanes and stroll down into the outskirts of town; the picture
at Christian Village is disheartening.
Apathy breeds a vicious cycle
of vice is quickly revolving, but sadly, most people turn a blind eye. Children
are not spared; they are often seen scavenging for scraps and solace from
strangers, endangering their lives in the process.
The sad state of the
needy at Christian Village has attracted the attention of a few concerned
youths, who have taken a brave initiative to help curb some of these unsightly
problems.
As these youths
single-handedly work to discover solutions to poverty and neglect, it is their
wish that well-meaning benefactors would jump on board to assist in providing
the needed resources to smoothly run the NGO.

Who We Are
The group is run by a
handful of youthful individuals from different backgrounds; but with a common
heartbeat-reaching out to the less fortunate members of society to help tap any
creative force that lies within them, through providing the necessary basic
tools for success- education, financial aid, and other social interventions.
Why We Serve
Bordering on the scope
of social interventions, Mawulolo Youth Network shares a common vision with
those social groups who reach out for the social good of others; more, the
group realizes the deep-end case for up rise in social vice, emerging from
neglect of these individuals to fend for themselves.
What We Do
The NGO networks with
various corporate organizations and institutions, and concerned individuals in
society to help create solutions in the lives of individuals in society, who
cannot afford the means of survival.
Fortunately, these
vulnerable ones can escape a bleak future; Mawulolo Youth Network stands in the
gap to broaden the doors of opportunities through extending needed help in
education, food supply and other useful means to curb poverty and reduce ‘streetism’.
Who Are We Looking For?
We are looking for flexible, caring volunteers who have the drive to not only help but to familiarize themselves with the local culture and characters.
The Challenge
Addressing the needs of
the youth and underprivileged is an on-going battle, not only in Ghana, but the
rest of the world. Neglect has rendered several homeless, and many more have
been left with very slim chances of ever reaching their full potential in life.
For most people, their
formative years have been stolen- poverty and neglect gradually wears away the
moral fabric of society.
Unfortunately, these
ones will not bear the consequences alone; everyone, at one point in time comes
to the stark reality of ignoring the issue of poverty and neglect. Few people
show distress.
Mawulolo Youth Network
creatively puts together solutions and in the process of reaching out, also
extends an invitation to anyone who would care.
