The Heart

Inspired by Sarah & Veronica

The mothers of our founders, whose lives and values continue to guide the organisation's dual mission to advance literacy and promote excellence in healthcare.

Matriarch I

Sarah

A strong, Bible-believing Christian, Sarah served as President of the Church of England's St. Stephen Church School in Tema, Ghana, before she retired. She raised all her children to a high standard of both faith and academic achievement, embodying the foundation's commitment to literacy and learning.

Matriarch II

Veronica

Veronica raised all her children to her own high standard, teaching them biblical principles and the value of hard work. Her nurturing guidance shaped a generation devoted to caring for others, inspiring the foundation's healthcare mission.

"Together, these two women modelled the future for a generation — proving that the greatest investment we can make is in the minds and health of those who will carry forward the future."
