Akwaaba Seeway Foundation was founded as a Ghanaian NGO in February 2020. We work with Seeway Trust a UK based Charity which has been in Ghana since the year 2000 building children’s homes and schools, also working with local churches and orphanages.

In 2021 George Bainborough of Seeway Trust was praying and God said that he should build a school and that He would fund the need. The following year the building of the school was started in the village of Namanwora in the Central Region. The school was completed in September of that year and opened for teaching.

In 2024 George discovered that children were being used in the fishing industry on Lake Volta in a way that could be considered slavery. Further enquiries revealed another form of slavery, that of the practice of Trokosi in the Volta area of Ghana and extending into the countries of Togo and Benin. This practice is part of a voodoo cult where those who follow it and have offended the gods, then give a virgin girl from the offending family to the shrine for life, in order to appease the gods.

Both practices are illegal in Ghana but they still continue, especially in the rural communities. Akwaaba Seeway Foundation have begun to rescue children from the Lake and have given them accommodation within the school complex at Namanwora and are being looked after by staff there. The children attend the school which for some, is their first taste of education.

It is the plan of ASF to build purpose built accommodation for the children with parent figures to help them grow to be well educated, balanced people who fully understand the Gospel of Jesus.

Over the last 23 years and to date, Seeway Trust UK has funded all the projects they have been involved with. Now that ASF is in place and operational with Ghanaian members who are fully qualified in all the aspects of this work it has been decided to give people who live in Ghana an opportunity to support this work. ASF is wide open to scrutiny and available for people to discuss options relating to such support.
