Child sponsorship is BOHF’s highest priority and largest programmatic component. We know that every child’s life matters and that every child has special talents, capabilities, and interests. Our organization exists to ensure that poverty, and its related social ills, will not prevent children in Ghana from realizing their full potential. We, as an organization, are best equipped to achieve these goals by removing children–one at a time–from the streets and providing them with long-term support for healthy development through an individualized, comprehensive child sponsorship program. Our sponsorship program first rescues children from danger and provides for their immediate needs, but additionally, offers them continual opportunities to learn, grow, cultivate their interests, and enter adulthood with a sense of self-worth, self-confidence, and the skills necessary to lead financially stable lives of integrity and purpose.

Similar to our child sponsorship program, BOHF supports homeless, abused, and/or single mothers in individualized, comprehensive ways. Our primary goal is to ensure their own physical safety, health, and financial well-being so that they are able to look after their children’s development and serve as a role model for them. We strive to equip mothers with the skills and resources to become financially independent, financially stable, self-confident, and without further need of our assistance.
