We have successfully completed our selection process out of the high numbers we recorded for the interview session. We are so excited about the candidates we selected for the One Year Volunteer Program. We have selected individuals with exceptional qualities and commitment to change. Based on our selection, we developed a strategy to have control over the southern, middle and northern belt of the country as we are looking forward to capture the whole of Ghana when we are 5 years in operation. Next year, we will be 4 years and we strongly believe this is the best beginning.
