Our Story

Our Story

The Goldcoast Literacy Program is a nonprofit organization founded in 2017 by Daisy Mina Antwi, with a passionate focus on children's literacy advocacy in slums and rural areas of Ghana. Our mission is simple yet powerful: to ensure every child enjoys reading and has access to quality education.

We believe in making education fun, accessible, and sustainable. Our journey began with a vision to create an illiteracy-free world where no child is left behind, regardless of their geographical location or socioeconomic background.

Since our inception, we have undertaken significant outreach initiatives across Ghana, delivering books, educational materials, and hope to communities that need it most. Our motto "#changingthenarrative #nonleftbehind" drives everything we do.
