There, charred baby-bones were discovered on the rubbish tip, leading to suspicion the orphanage was involved in the peddling of human body parts, possibly for use in rituals or for organ harvesting.

Right in the middle. KBFF is and will continue to be a bridge in the gap between the needs of the people and the void that the government plan does not provide. KBFF needs you and your support, but more importantly the children of Ghana need you. Join us today!

I was cleaning out spam from my in-box, trying to figure out new ways to generate money for our projects and goals this year, when I finally got to an email at the bottom of the list. It was from a precocious young man named Will.

As a board member of the KBFF team, I of course have an obligation to familiarize myself with the institution which I had set out to assist.

Maybe this is the first of what you hope will be a large and happy family. Maybe this is your last. Perhaps due to complications and circumstances beyond your control, this will be the only baby you will ever carry and give birth to.

Can you hear that? Can you smell that? Ahhhh…Those are the sounds and smells of summer. Back yard bar-b-ques, squealing neighbors’ kids, the guy with the base who refuses to turn down the volume on his car radio. Summer also brings us anticipated and well-deserved vacations that we have waited for the entire year. What is doesn’t bring, is an end to suffering, misfortune and strife…and sometimes while we’re sipping fruity umbrella drinks, it’s easy to forget that.

Dr Eunice Adei, a KBFF board member, and a fellow classmate made arrangements for us to meet. The scene at the hospital was all too familiar, but I observed ongoing renovations of several of the old buildings.

If we’re so inclined, we can be the force responsible for brining a glimmer of light to another person so badly needing it in their darkest hour. This week, you were that force!

When you're working under certain conditions you can't really sit down and think about the situation too much or you'll just quit. I have been at the point of exhaustion so many times and I can't tell you the number of times I've just wanted to pack my bags and never come back.

Just in time for Independence Day, we received a report for our latest discharge recipient from Korle-Bu hospital. Her name is Sandra Noah, and her story again exemplifies why we do this work.
