ALMOST A MONTH AT CHF

                 Its been almost a month since I started my internship with cheerful hearts foundation,and i must say its been awesome here.Since the last update at the celebration of the child labor day at NYANYANO ,myself and fellow interns Grace and Jenn from the USA and Vivian from UCC continue to do the malaria awareness campaign at schools nearby.We have been to schools such as Raycon internation,Jarfar Saddiq Academy,and State preparatory .In these schools we give the the talks in groups that is the primary one day and the JHS on another day
.The response from the students has been quite impressive and the introduction of the gifts for students that can summarize also seem to motivate the kids to participate very well.
Apart from the malaria awareness campaign,CHF is going to be resuming work on the child labor at the Senya Breku District,covering Gomoa Nyanyano,senya and Fete.This time around CHF intends to introduce more child friendly activities to encourage the kids to live the fishing shores and enroll in schools.We had a meeting with our caretakers at nyanyano to discuss how we would do that.
.A lot of suggestions were raised and hopefully will be very effective in solving child labor issues in the district.According to the executive director MR ERIC OPOKU AGYEMANG more work needs to be done especially in senya where some of the kids are sold to Yeji in another region.

              CHF has new interns from the UK Sofia and Adam and Also Emily ,Megan and Josh, they are very happy to be in Ghana and working at CHF and we are all having a great time together.Hopefully students and some some senior staff members will be helping as with the child labor project from university of Washington, which will start probably in JULY.
I should say i have learned  quite a lot these few weeks and hope to learn a lot more before I go back to school.
