The Union
We are a registered association based in Wuppertal. Our association is active in the education of children, teenagers, and young adults in Africa. Our focus areas include strengthening IT skills, tutoring and homework support, and university and vocational training.

Our target group consists of children, adolescents, and young adults in difficult socioeconomic circumstances. These children grow up in households with limited access to education, where money is barely enough to survive. Sometimes, children are withdrawn from school because there isn't enough money for school uniforms. Domestic violence, drug and alcohol abuse by caregivers, neglect, and other consequences of poverty and lack of opportunity are part of their daily lives.
 
Our focus is on the Old Fadama slum in the metropolis of Accra, Ghana. However, we are also active in other cities in Ghana and in Namibia. A personal connection to the children, teenagers, and young adults is always a prerequisite.
