A Bit of Good News

A Special Edition from Dave’s son, Max and his friends:

Over the past year, we have started and developed a non-profit, Empowering Africa Inc.

Empowering Africa Inc. was started by 4 high school students with the purpose to provide STEM scholarships for underprivileged students in Ghana. In Ghana, the government subsidizes education heavily to make quality education available to all its citizens, but even with subsidies, many brilliant students are still unable to pay for their schooling.

Working alongside the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, we have confirmed our pledge to provide full-tuition scholarships for five students throughout the 2020-21 school year as we have already raised over $3,000!

Our application went live in January of 2020 and has already received hundreds of downloads. We believe that with the help of any donations, we can change the lives of many more students for years to come.
