THE TEAM.
​ Edgar Akuffo-Addo.------- FOUNDER​.

Edgar Akuffo-Addo is a freshman at Claflin University, Orangeburg. Cancer researching and volunteering is second nature to Edgar. His interest in Cancer research has ended him up in Dr. Leslie Wooten Blanks’ lab where they are researching on the regulation of Telomerase, an enzyme that confers immortality to cancer cells. He is a volunteer at the United Hospice of the Midlands. Edgar always wonders, ‘How can we em-better Africa? ; Unless we educate the youth who will take over tomorrow.Nothing is as contagious as example’, that is why he is on-board to make the needed reform in African Education.
Safa Sofie Abdin.------- Director of Partnership and Programs.
​​
​Safa Sofie Abdin is a medical student at Copenhagen University, Denmark. She is a global citizen as she mostly terms herself; hailing from Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia, Turkey and Denmark. Safa is so passionate about making her impact to Africa. Her desire to help the underprivileged children in Africa has ended her up volunteering in Ghana, Ivory Coast, Sudan and a host of other countries. Safa believes that Giving kids clothes and food is one thing but it's much more imperative to educate them, 'for he who opens a school door closes a prison' , this is the commitment she makes to the organization.
​​Prince Gyekye Addai.-------- CO-FOUNDER.
​​
Prince G. Addai is a freshman at Fisk University. He is currently a volunteer at the Metro General Hospital at Nashville, a Math Tutor at the LEAD Program and a senator for the ping-pong club. He volunteers in a Biology research project with Dr Hugh M. Fentress: adjunct assistant professor of Pharmacology at the Vanderbilt School of Medicine, at the Hughes-Kellogg Biology Research Laboratory. Prince believes the problem of Africa cannot be solved by financial empowerment but by intellectual empowerment. It is in the light of this that he co-founded the organization, so that he can contribute to the intellectual empowerment of Africa.
