About Action Through Enterprise

Action Through Enterprise (ATE) is a small but growing, dynamic charity. It is one of the only charities working with communities in Lawra District, in a remote corner of Upper West Ghana. Our mission is to reduce poverty in Lawra District, Upper West Ghana through education, enterprise and social change. Already ATE has achieved fantastic results in improved attendance of hundreds of school children through the provision of free school meals and enabled small business owners to continue to gain new skills and make greater profits to support themselves and their families year-round. We are also immensely proud to make it possible for families with disabled children to overcome isolation and discrimination, and find renewed strength to raise their children to fulfill their potential. Action Through Enterprise was founded in 2012 by Sarah Gardner during her year as a volunteer teacher trainer in Lawra. Moved to action by the level of poverty she encountered, she began to listen to and work with the local community to bring about positive change. We believe in the power of working in partnership with local people to enable them to thrive, to promote economic development and improve the quality of life for all people in Lawra District and the surrounding areas. We also believe that the positive impacts we are having should be deepened and expanded, to reach more people in the Upper West who experience the struggles of living poverty. Our vision is to significantly reduce poverty in the Upper West Region of Ghana. We have the passion, expertise and the will to achieve this. We would value your support.
