About US
Our story
The Espersen
The foundation first started by distributing school uniforms on a small scale in northern Ghana where Nina’s husband Abdul Latif Yassin was born. For a long time the foundation managed with the money from the inheritance, but more and more schools and children needed more and more school uniforms and more school supplies.
In 2016, the board decided to turn to friends and the public to be able to support more schools, and the surrounding communities on a long-term Base.
Our ambition is to enable support for self-help by strengthening individuals’ ability to use their human rights.
Local partner In Ghana
On December 14, 2016, the foundation’s sister organisation was established in Tamale in northern Ghana.
The organizations main focus is to contribute to reducing child labor.
The sister Organisation helps to swe the school uniforms and to distribute to them to the schools
The board consists of Idrissu al Hafiz, Salamatu Mahazu, Issifu Basideen and Dorcas Ama Gyabi.
