Over het programma

You4Ghana sponsors the Red Lion Soccer Academy since the beginning of 2017. The club consists of a U11, a U13 and a U15 team. We have rented a clubhouse where the players are fed and some also live. Our two Ghanaian coaches, who also look after the kids, would be very happy to receive support. Training takes place from Tuesday to Friday and games are played on weekends. The boys who live in the academy can also be tutored or supported in any other way. So if you have some footballing experience and enjoy training, then contact us. The Red Lions are looking forward to meeting you! Our volunteers are not restricted to one project. If you want to experience different types of work and get diverse impressions, you are welcome to work in more than one project. We are looking forward to welcoming you in Ghana!

Dagelijkse activiteiten

Since the players go to school during the week, practice starts Tuesday-Friday around 4pm. Mondays are off. On the weekend there are normally league matches. The volunteer can join the team to the matches or take the weekends off. It is recommended to work in one of our other projects in the morning before practice starts. Otherwise you will have a lot of free time. This is not mandatory though. If you want to relax, you are more than welcome to do so.

Vrijetijdsactiviteiten

Our accommodations are located in the beautiful village of Obomeng. It is part of the Kwahu Highlands in the Eastern part of the country. Since its location is high above sea level, it offers a very pleasant climate for Europeans. During your stay you will be staying either in our volunteer house or with a host family. The Kwahu Highlands offer plenty of opportunities for day trips. At nearby Lake Volta you can take a boat trip or go swimming. Diverse hiking trails to the peaks of the mountains offer wonderful views over the valleys and the Ghanaian jungle. At the markets in the larger villages, many exciting things can be purchased, and during the rainy season, the numerous waterfalls offer an alternative shower. At Easter, people from all over Ghana come to Kwahu to celebrate the biggest festival of the country. Nothing compares to this crazy event! Anyone planning on coming to Ghana around this time should not miss the Easter celebration.

Ontmoet je organisatie

Welcome to You4Ghana! We are happy you found your way to our page. We are offering socially committed people the opportunity to participate in volunteer projects in Ghana, while educating them about the Ghanaian culture and lifestyle.

According to our motto "Work & Grow", our aim is the long-term improvement of the quality of life of the people in our projects. We specifically focus on supplying people with clean drinking water, the construction of sanitation facilities, supporting the education sector, as well as working with children. At the same time it is important to us to create a dialogue between the volunteers and the residents. By working together in projects, both sides have a lot to learn from each other. Those who approach these people with respect will gain insight into a whole new world.


We own a volunteer house in which up to 20 volunteers can live together. For those who want to experience the Ghanaian culture and everyday life even more, we also offer accommodation in host families. Whatever you decide, one thing is certain: anyone who undertakes this journey with an open and tolerance attitude will have an unforgettable time and experience incredible things.
