Partnering for a Malaria-Free Ghana: SOW Foundation & GHS
Partnering for a Malaria-Free Ghana: SOW Foundation & GHS
Since 2006, the Strength of Women (SOW) Foundation has been a steadfast partner in the national mission to reduce and eliminate malaria across Ghana. In close collaboration with District Health Management Teams (DHMT) and supported by the Global Fund and the Ghana Health Service (GHS), we have implemented life-saving interventions throughout the Volta and Greater Accra Regions.
Our commitment to health equity was recently highlighted on March 16, 2026, when our leadership team was invited by the Ningo Prampram District Health Directorate to share the successes and strategic challenges of our 2025 operations. We are honored by the District Director’s subsequent pledge of total support for the upcoming 2026 project phase. Together, we are building a more resilient health system and ensuring that every community has the resources to thrive.
Bridging the Digital Gap with MICT4SCH
No ICT Lab? No Problem!
Across the Ningo-Prampram District, over 8,700 Junior High School pupils are missing out on vital digital skills due to non-functional ICT labs in 51 public schools. The Strength of Women Foundation (SOW Foundation) is addressing this challenge through an innovative solution - the Mobile ICT for Schools (MICT4SCH) project.
This fully equipped mobile ICT lab brings technology directly to learners. Housed in a custom van with 40 laptops, projectors, and power solutions, the mobile lab rotates among schools each month, providing hands-on digital training to every student.
Beyond the classroom, MICT4SCH extends digital literacy to out-of-school youth and community members, fostering responsible online behavior and preparing participants for the modern workforce. The project’s sustainability model also offers paid ICT services to private schools and communities, ensuring continued impact and growth.
We invite corporate partners, donors, and development agencies to join us in empowering the next generation of digital citizens. Together, we can ensure that every child - regardless of where they live - has the opportunity to learn, create, and thrive in the digital age.

Moving from a shared office within the Executive Director’s residence to a dedicated office space at Goshen Plaza on the Prampram-Miotso road marks a milestone in our journey to building a resilient organization. This move, along with strategic initiatives such as the development of procedural policies, strengthens our operational capacity and positions SOW for long-term impact. As we continue to expand, we remain committed to fostering a structured, transparent, and efficient organization that drives meaningful change in the communities we serve.
