saforadu foundatioN
(the home of integrity & true love)
Saforadu Foundation, the Ghanaian version of the President's US-based Winners League International, Inc., is a vibrant and impactful nonprofit organization, estalished initially at Afrisipakrom, the "Golden City" of Ahafo Region, Ghana, to support and empower widows and children in need in Ghana and beyond. The Foundation is supported by numerous subsidiaries, faithful donors (including you, of course), and dedicated volunteers. Its right-hand subsidiary is Standard Pioneers Ventures (S&D), located at New Legon, Kwabenya, and Brekuso, in Accra.
We at SAFORADU FOUNDATION (the home of integrity & true love) strongly believe that to succeed in life, every human being must be wise, hardworking, loving, kind, truthful, and, above all, he/she must be a person of integrity. Moreover, we rise by lifting others, and we need to Give to Receive! Never expect to receive if you're not willing to give!
INTEGRITY--"thinking about and doing the right thing, even when no one is watching"
"And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise."
(Philippians 4:8)
A QUICK REMINDER: "Sorry, but if it's hard for you to pray, exercise, love, and care for others, you're too busy in life. Meanwhile, remember that your life is the Lord's precious gift to you, and what you do with it is your gift back to Him."
Be humble and never think that you are better than anyone else,
"For dust you are, and unto dust you shall return (Genesis 3:19b)."
"Should you dislike anyone, please dislike them alone. Don't recruit others to join your cause."
"The reason why you struggle with insecurity in life is that you keep comparing yourself with others, forgetting that everyone is unique and wonderfully complete. Just remain humble and never think anyone is superior or inferior to you. Should any comparison be necessary, then it must be with the person you were yesterday!"
"Everyone on earth is going through something that they don't talk about, and it is those who push through these difficult times that eventually become successful in life."
"Always remember that the purpose of life is to discover your gift; the work is to develop your gift, and the meaning of life is to give your gift away."
"Moreover, remember that life is purely a do-it-yourself project. Depend on yourself, and you'll never be let down. If you don't push yourself to the limit, no one else will do it for you; and if you really want it done well, then you need to do it yourself. Be kind to everyone you meet, and never give up in life, for this too shall pass." AMEN!
"A meaningfully successful life is not being rich, being popular, being highly educated, or being perfect. It is about being real and hardworking, being humble and kind, being able to share ourselves and touch the lives of others to make a difference. It's only then that we could have a full, happy, prosperous, contented, and fulfilling life."
"Share your blessings, and your hardships will also be shared."
"Don't count your blessings; be a blessing that others can count on."
"Any hands that help are holier than any lips that pray."
"Always remember that almost true is still false."

OUR MAJOR GOALs

"Never lie to someone who trusts you; and never trust someone that lies to you."
"Be careful who you trust and open up to, for not all who smile at you are your friends."
"I respect those that tell me the truth, no matter how hard it is, for I strongly believe integrity is everything"
(Elder Prof. K. Saforadu Amankwaa-Pam)

our vision & mission
VISION"To constitute a philanthropic organization of integrity in Ghana and beyond"MISSION"To include the excluded in society by supporting, encouraging, and empowering widows and/or children in need in the target field"
"Many people are, rather unfortunately, searching for happiness in individual persons, money, and material possessions, but that's only a sad mistake. True happiness is internal and priceless, and it's found the day you identify your main purpose in life, and you begin immediately to work with passion, dedication, and commitment to attempt to accomplish it. That's when you gradually turn into a person of integrity, and you begin to do things not for any monetary gains, but for the joy and peace derived therefrom. In that case, you're happy, not because everything is good, but because you see the good in everything."
Elder Professor Kwaku Saforadu Amankwaa-Pam,
Ph.D., M.Ed., M.Phil.

"If materialistic things are what you're talking about when you say 'I'm blessed,' you have no idea what a blessing is."
