School for Ghana

The journey began in 2008 when Father John Awiti arrived from the Diocese of Techiman Ghana to spend the summer with us.  The parishioners of St. Margaret's embraced, Father John.  We recognized the need for an elementary school building with a roof, cement floor, brick walls, plumbing, desks, etc.  All the things we take for granted. And so began "The Angel Project."

As you know, we have had numerous fundraisers for the School building in Ghana.  There have been countless garage sales, clothing drives, and deposit bottle collections.  Our Parish collected children's books that were shipped to Ghana.  Shipping costs were donated.  All of this generosity has enabled construction progress to be made (photos forthcoming on this page).

Announcements: 

• The School, in Ghana, has been named Saint Margaret of Antioch School!
• The next phase of the project:  Windows & Doors, March 2019. Give a gift in memory or in honor of someone and the name will be added to a "donation wall" constructed in the school.
• The different sized window and doors for Day Care (see needs below):
