World Vision Ghana has won two prestigious Ghana Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Excellence Awards (GHANACEA) for its dedication to positively impacting the lives of the most vulnerable children at the 10th edition of the Ghana CRS Excellence Awards 2023.

The Centre for CSR, West Africa annual awards event is a joint collaboration between the Association of Ghana Industries (AGI, Ghana Chamber of Commerce, Corporates organizations, JICA and some key Government Ministries including Ministry for Energy) to recognize reputable organizations who make significant contributions towards the attainment of the SDGs.  

According to the organizers, close to 100 companies submitted entries for the award and World Vision’s entries emerged as one of the outstanding organizations.

Accordingly, World Vision Ghana was awarded "Best CSR NGO in Ghana and SDG Partnership on the Unlock Literacy Programme".

Both the Board Chair and Vice received the awards on behalf of WVG.

The Board Chair also gave cultivating speech which revolved around WVG offerings to donors on “3T”, that is trust, technical capacity and track record in line with their Local Resource Mobilization drive.

This resonated extremely well with the audience. GHANACEA Awards recognize programmes' impact on lives, livelihoods, education, water, sanitation, and hygiene and contributions to national development.

World Vision Ghana implements unique community development programmes such as Livelihood Improvement and Family Empowerment (LIFE), Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene, and the Unlocking of Literacy, which increase households' food and nutrition security, income, and children's access to quality education, healthcare, safe drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene facilities and services.

These programmes help reduce poverty, improve quality of life, and encourage sustainable development, especially the well-being of children.

They also provide training and resources to communities to help them become more self-sufficient, empowered, and resilient. Additionally, these programmes create economic opportunities, promote gender equality, and reduce inequality and injustices.

They also provide access to quality education and healthcare to thousands of children living in rural communities in Ghana.
