Takoradi here we come
In April the Dutch To Be Worldwide Board and volunteers visited the Takoradi Centre. We spent an intensive 3 days working on various programs. Together with the I Want To Be Program Team we evaluated the program and made adjustments in preparation of the Summer 2019 session. We ran a workshop for our Alumni on "Life Skills", introduced Mini Loco and met our new colleague Linda Sarfoah.
Our very own Books!
When we realised we could not find the right books to support our Reading Club Program we decided to develop our own books! Now we have a series of 12 books for our program. Most important is that these books reflect the children's own world. Thank you to our team of volunteers who helped develop these books!! Interested in our books? Let us know!

Building New Classrooms
We have started the construction of our new activities and a computer classroom. Funds for this project were raised by students of the New School in Amsterdam at a wonderful event organised by them in the presence of her Excellency, Madam Ambassador Mrs Sophia Horner Sam. Thank you to all for making this possible! Construction is expected to be completed in June 2019!
Digital Marketing a reality!
We are very proud of our Alumni who participated in the Digital Marketing Program organised in cooperation with Net4kids Aid Foundation and Google. Thank you, Emile (Net4kids) and Yev (Google) for your commitment to helping us realise this program.

Storytelling with Auntie Pat
We have introduced a new program. It's "Storytelling with Auntie Pat" We now offer our 6 to 8-year-old members a chance to get excited about reading, while they build their vocabulary and their comprehension. A story is read to them, they are engaged in answering questions and participate in a variety of activities relating to the story. All while they have a lot of fun!!
Market Day!!
It was “Market Day” at the Centre!
We organised a market with clothing donated to us by the brand IMPS&ELFS and Hockey Club AHBC. We also took this opportunity to hand out old books. A group of 10 children were selected to participate in this program. They would help display the goods, help behind the counter and each team of 2 would ask someone a question about their buying decisions.
