About Us

Francklyds Family Foundation is a multifaceted organization that seeks to be the beamer of hope in the outskirts of a small town called Kasoa in the central region of Ghana. It started out fifteen years ago as a professional institution to give wayward and street teenage girls a better and safer alternatives for their future.

There is a cultural undertone that formal education for female children is a waste of resources since their role in this world is thought to be a wife, housekeeping and child bearer. Therefore, many young teenage girls of child bearing age tend to run away from their respective homes in the villages to the city and towns in an effort to escape the shackles of early marriage and to find better opportunities. Unfortunately, these girls find themselves in a fast paced society that they are ill equipped to survive in, so they find themselves in a fate worse than they set out to seek. They end up in professions such as prostitution or becoming house maids for abusive employers.

It is from this realization that Francklyds Secretariat School was born. This is an educational institution which offers affordable or free education for girls who were rescued from the streets and seek a better life. However, as the years unfold, this institution has extended this educational opportunity to teenage boys in the same predicament. The idea here is that if we educate the future generation about the importance of education for everyone, irrespective of one’s sex, there is a better chance to break the cycle and renew our minds. Therefore, Francklyds Secretariats became a professional institution with a High School component built in. Today, Francklyds has included an orphanage to cater for both children and adolescents with a shelter and a dormitory being set up so children will have continuous care, love and protection while being educated. This endeavor was included because of the realization of the psychosocial impact homelessness and lack of family support and love can have on a student’s education.

Francklyds Family Foundation was started by a God fearing woman called Mrs. Nancy Nettey. This year, the fouding leaders of Francklyds Family Foundation and Apostle Stephen Peter Kulu who is the founding father of New Generation Ministry formed a partnership in an effort to raise awareness and seek public financial support for these children as the foundation keeps getting more children. The financial need is getting greater and this collaboration hopes to shine light on this issue and appeal to the hearts of the general public to help.
This is the first collaborative christian international missionary to Ghana since the alliance was formed and we hope we can urge you to become a blessing to support this vision of God.
