Totttenham City Youth Club

Among our objectives is to help brilliant but needy students as well as potential students in in our communities to become effective and useful citizens to the whole world.Our aim is to assist children acquire the necessary skills for their own usefulness to their community and Ghana in general. It is our hope that leaders will be raised with our effort and your support. This achieved the vices of drugs and alcohol abuse which untrained minds tend to adopt would be averted. Other remedies induced by the deprived children’s education are avoidance of “SAKAWA” (Internet Fraud), robbery and other anti-social activities which have been rampant in the constituency. When a person is not educated, life challenges are profound as they have not obtained any skills that have the aptitude of making them profitable. The negativity that lack of education renders undeserving children is very unrewarding, not to them alone but to society in General.

OneReef Worldwide Stewardship

OneReef's Vision is to create vibrant reefs and thriving communities. OneReef's Mission is to partner with island communities to combine traditional stewardship and modern resources to protect at least 25% of coral reefs across Micronesia. Less than 5% of the billions of dollars spent annually on the environment is made available directly to locals who manage ecosystems. We work to fill this unmet need - we partner directly with island communities to protect reefs and recover fisheries. Our mission is based on the insight that island communities are more effective environmental stewards when their traditional knowledge and practices are combined with the right scientific, financial, and technical partnerships and resources. It ensures that practical and cost-effective solutions emerge. OneReef's Community Partnership Model is a proven way to accomplish long-term conservation success: - Through equitable agreements, traditional knowledge is combined with the right partnerships and resources, and economic benefits are directly linked to conservation - Agreements include the community's 20-year vision, shared commitments and expected outcomes, a spatial management plan, impact monitoring plan, and more. - This results in innovative, practical and cost-effective solutions to enforce managed fishing zones, measure impact, and build social cohesion around conservation that endures. Why the OneReef Community Partnership model has proven to be effective: 1. The right people in the right places Our island community partners have a strong "eco-identity" and take responsibility for their environment. They want their reefs to thrive in the face of over-fishing and climate change. 2. The right tools and resources Our island community partners need financial, scientific, and technical resources to protect their reefs. OneReef mentors community members: (1) Training, tools, infrastructure to increase agency (2) Support for management plans (3) Science-based impact measures (4) Long-term, leveraged financing 3. The right partnerships We align private and public funds, technology, and science. Working hand-in-hand, OneReef, island communities, elected leaders, funders, and technical and scientific partners combine modern resources with traditional stewardship. Joint problem-solving and meaningful engagement create enduring value.
