2017 Began with a major milestone. TREE Africa was asked to speak at a youth book club in St. Louis, Missouri-USA; making this our first international appearance.
Our Co-Founder spoke to the eager group of girls about the importance of sisterhood, reading and helping the community. The NerdyGirlz Book Club learned a lot about Ghana and got a chance to see pictures and items from Africa.
Thank you NerdyGirlz Book Club and keep reading!!

2016 Ended with a grand concert by our Music Program with Akoma International Academy in Ayensudu, Ghana. This completes our successful 2nd school year of TREE Africa's African Classical Music Program-teaching leadership, culture appreciation and the power of classical music to improve listening, reading and verbal skills; molding children into future leaders that think more creatively and will inevitably come up with better solutions for our most pressing issues.
