About Entrepreneurship

What does it mean to be an entrepreneur in Ghana? Someone working on their own, providing sufficient income to support themselves and their family for a sustainable future.

At least that is Point Hope's description. Maybe we train people to have a skill and then to be an entrepreneur (read Rose's Story), or maybe Point Hope provides the capital through a microloan or a grant to begin a small business which will allow a family to be self-sufficient and have the pride of accomplishment. 

Either way, Point Hope regularly creates opportunities for people to help themselves (offering a hand-up, instead of a hand-out.) 

“I founded Point Hope as a 501(c)3 non-profit or charitable organization because I was ONE person who wanted to be blessed through helping and I strongly believed there would be other individuals who felt the same, but might not know how to get started, so....

Come be blessed!! 100% of your donations go directly to help people and support the operations of Point Hope. I have made it my responsibility to cover all administrative fees, so you will know your investment in humanity stretches as far as possible.
