Our vision
Create a conscious, critical mass of young, creative, enterprising Ghanaians
Our mission
We lead and empower young people through a journey of re-discovery and transformation, by promoting and supporting strengths-driven initiatives founded on vision, integrity, service, and accessibility.
Our goal
To increase literacy, creativity and enterprise among young Ghanaians.
Our focus
SF is borne to devote resources to leverage the capacity of young people to think across more complex data spectra to form novel and useful connections and decisions.
We aim to help our youth and young entrepreneurs become more discerning, savvy, and confident decision makers. We do so by lending unique skills, expertise and resources to help them address the gnawing challenges of illiteracy, creativity and enterprise by launching for them relevant projects.
We also support women who have implemented initiatives that harness transformational change among young people.

All our interventions are underscored by four core characteristics of excellence: Vision, Integrity, Service and Accessibility. Together they constitute the value indicators with which projects pass for implementation or support.
Vision
We have a clear, ambitious, beneficial destination and direction.
Integrity
We ensure clarity, transparency, honesty, and high levels of performance and results.
Service
We render service through the demonstration of empathy and love that transcends self.
Accessibilty
We apply an engaging and people approach to initiatives that have relevance and reach within communities.
