The origin of our work in Ghana is our Mass Participation Programme, this is tasked with getting thousands of disadvantaged children to play the sports they love. We work in underprivileged local communities using international sports coaches to go into clubs and schools to help provide education, equipment and training sessions that can make a real difference to the lives of the children participating.

Operating alongside the academy, Rising Stars of Africa runs an after school programme for the local community. Here we conduct additional lessons and provide a homework help service, and, for those behind in their studies hold intervention one-on-one teaching. This has an emphasis on personal and scholastic development with the aim to help children emerge from the cycle of poverty by helping them to gain a better education, more skills and instil leadership qualities to better themselves and their community.

We host a number of international coaches each year in a variety of sports covering football (soccer), hockey, netball, rugby, basketball, tennis and others.
