OAfrica celebrates 15 years in Ghana by officially outdooring Joselyn Dumas as Worlwide Ambassador

OAfrica celebrates 15 years in Ghana by officially outdooring Joselyn Dumas as Worlwide Ambassador
OAfrica, an organization that supports children by building strong families to eliminate child abandonment and create safe, stable and loving families and communities, has officially outdoored actress, TV host and producer, Joselyn Dumas as its Worlwide Ambassador. 

The announcement comes of the heals of celebrating 15 years of OAfrica (formally OrphanAid Africa) in Ghana, and World Human Rights Day. Joselyn Dumas is a proud mother whose life is centered around her child. Her belief, “Never stand begging for what you have the power to earn” has been her motivation and drive over the years. Joselyn is an ardent reader, loves to travel, admires nature, always makes time to keep fit and above all loves God.






For the past 15 years OAfrica has supported children and young adults in Ghana: a co-creator with the Government of Ghana and UNICEF of the CARE REFORM INICIATIVE, OAfrica has been tracing and reuniting children from orphanages by strengthening their extended families and giving the children scholarships. OAfrica has been committed to care reform and ensuring that children grow up in safe, permanent family settings with appropriate care and protection and with equal rights and opportunity.

OAfrica Founder, Lisa Lovatt-Smith comments: “The leading cause of child abandonment is poverty. Poor families often feel that placing their children into an orphanage is the only way to ensure they receive proper education, food and other essentials. We don’t agree: we think orphanages are often very abusive and that the best place for a child is in the family in their community. “

“We hope that by highlighting our successes in the past 15 years and how we give our beneficiaries a great future and a great education, we can inspire you to support us.”

OAfrica programs support children by building strong families to eliminate child abandonment and create safe, stable and loving families and communities. With the right kind of support, the organization knows that families can stay together. OAfrica helps families of children at risk of abandonment and gives them secure futures within their communities.

OAfrica’s mission is to empower children and young adults in need of care and protection because of institutionalization, abandonment, neglect, disability or abuse to become productive members of the community. We accomplish this by strengthening families and reintegrating separated children whose rights have been compromised due to poverty, violence, trafficking, disease and discrimination into safe, stable and loving households.

The mission of IBIS Styles Hotel is to create a meaningful experience for the community of travelers and new nomads all around the globe but transcends to supporting projects and programs of OAfrica to create a meaningful future for its beneficiaries.

“Most importantly, we want to celebrate Christmas with the children Oafrica supports in community based foster care. We trust you carry on our message to the general public to support a worthy course,” adds Lisa Lovatt-Smith .
