Are you ready to help ?
I have always believed that if you want to see change in this world, you must first be that change. The vision for Daily Bread Africa was born from a burden I felt after spending my birthday in September 2023 serving meals to the underprivileged on the streets of Accra, Ghana. That simple act of kindness left me wondering how these individuals survive each day without knowing where their next meal will come from. I immediately decided to be the change I wanted to see by starting an organization that would be committed to ending hunger, one meal at a time. After a year of research and brainstorming, I communicated the burden to a few trusted people in my life who helped me run a feasibility study and gave life to the vision. On January 1st, 2025, we officially launched, and none of this would have been possible without the incredible people who chose to walk this journey with me. My co-founders: Emmanuel, who thought of the name “Daily Bread Africa” and currently serves as our Operations Manager, and Justina & Lawrence, who have dedicated their time and resources to ensure the success of this organization. I’m also deeply grateful to Francisca, who has diligently tracked our meals served, community outreach, and impact since day one. To my dear mother, Barbara, who serves as our dedicated Program Coordinator, ensures every meal is prepared and stored efficiently for distribution. Our shared passion and hard work has helped us turn a simple dream into a mission that is transforming lives everyday. Together, we have built not just an organization, but a family grounded in compassion, purpose, and impact. This journey has taught me that being the change I wish to see means showing up with a willing heart and faith that even the smallest effort can make a lasting difference.
