Welcome to our blogg

I  Ebenezer Mankoe who enjoy helping other people with the desire to do something that will help to better the lives of the needy both  young and old . On my way back from Church some two years ago, the Methodist church to be precise i met one  Evelyn Mairlot from Belgium and Malin Larsson also from Sweden who were then working on a project at mum's care orphanage , so we discussed and that took us to the orphanage where am presently working as a teacher.Evelyn Mairlort based in Belgium still sponsors the'' take a fruit a day'' project at the home.
In early October 2013, i started teaching the children at mum's care orphanage,  the name of the school is Jenni's Mark of Royalty school. The name of the school is in honour of volunteer Jenni Lindberg a Swedish volunteers who is the main sponsor through her outfit known as 'LOVE LIFE SWEDEN'. Other volunteers Also help is sponsoring various projects and gifts through  monies  from family,friends,companies aside the director Ms.Felicia Quaye . Projects like the toilets ,the sickbay, the chicken house etc, are all mostly funded by 'LOVE LIFE'  and other volunteers like Lisa and Dennis Boonstra from Holland who sponsored the school park and bore hole project in memory of their late father Macel Boonstra . I EBENEZER MANKOE , the children and the management of mum's care children's home have started  a better life agenda for the home. so Jenni Lindberg a total philanthropist is assisting in achieving our plan the better life agenda for mum's care children's home. Presently we have a water project of which we will need a vehicle which will help us sell out some of our products, proceeds which will greatly help the home.
