Our mission in action
Our Mission

Raising a Kingdom Generation — one child at a time.

DEGCA is a nonprofit organization committed to improving the lives of underprivileged and vulnerable children and communities in Ghana through free quality education, daily meals, community health services, skills and vocational training, mentorship, and humanitarian support. We create opportunities for children to discover their purpose, develop their potential, and become responsible, compassionate leaders who positively impact their communities. Our vision is to raise a Kingdom generation through education, love, service, faith, and community partnership.

In Ghana, beautiful students show up each day ready to learn, even while lacking running water, electricity, and air conditioning. We exist to change that — providing meals, education, healthcare, and the love of Jesus.

Welcome to DEGCA Foundation! DEGCA Foundation is a U.S.-registered 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN: 42-4357276) committed to empowering underprivileged children and vulnerable communities in Ghana to discover and develop their God-given potential. Although our organization is registered in the United States, our heart, programs, and community operations are based in Ghana, West Africa. Through our four core programs—Free Education, Community Health Services, Skills & Vocational Training, and Humanitarian Services—we create opportunities, provide practical support, and help children and families build healthier, brighter, and more hopeful futures. We believe every child has potential and every community deserves an opportunity to thrive. We work together with families, volunteers, partners, donors, and supporters to make a lasting difference through love, service, education, and opportunity. We invite you to join us in raising a generation that is equipped to learn, lead, serve, and make a meaningful difference in the world.
