About this project
betterplace-Team from Young Achievers Caucus (YAC) is responsible for this project
Most developing countries are faced with the problem of little or no resources for the development of their countries. Governments are faced with the issue of tight national budgets; so little or no attention is given to development in the rural areas, thereby leaving those in deprived communities at the mercy of some concerned individuals and organizations.
The Young Achievers Caucus (YAC) believes in the importance of providing the individual with the needed facilities and support in order to help, train and prepare the individual to attain independence and to become self-sustained. YAC also believes that the government alone cannot be tasked with the entire development of the country, individuals and organizations must support. Reaching out to the deprived communities in the country and beyond is not only termed as a social responsibility, it is also a moral obligation.
The Young Achievers Caucus is mostly dominated by youths who understands and appreciates the essence of having good Education, Better Health care and good infrastructure. Since the organization is being fully funded by the individual contributions of members at the moment, the organization is limited financially to fully execute the various programs designed by the organizations for those in the selected deprived communities. The support from an external body or individuals will help the organization to fully achieve it set goals and objectives especially with respect to programs designed to help children and people in deprived communities of the country.
The Grassroots Development Project (GDP) being the first action plan focuses on Health (Sexual and Reproductive health), Education (Promoting and enhancing good education through ICT and the donation of educational materials) and the provision of infrastructure(Libraries, bore-holes, toilet facilities) where necessary. This project seeks to improve the lives of people in deprived communities of Ghana. Women and children are the main focus of the project; the organization channels resources into providing women and children in these deprived communities with the necessary skills and tools, through the organization of sustainable and development oriented activities. These includes; engaging them in Sexual and Reproductive Health Education, supporting them with donations, training them in small scale businesses to help them support themselves and their families and helping them to build infrastructures to support and enhance good living where there is a need.
