About
One Step Learning (OSL) is a Canadian charity creating early childhood learning opportunities for impoverished children in Entumbil, Ghana. OSL provides affordable daycare facilities for 1- 4 year-olds in the rural town. Together we make the difference so we need a relationship and your generosity.
Our goal is that increased exposure of rural children to early childhood learning and English language will create opportunities for them to become lifelong learners of tomorrow.
The affordable daycare Centre opened October 2021, with 11 children and now we serve 80 children. It has become a successful community resource, a big relief for parents, and in February 2022 employed 14 people.
Make an impact by joining the early childhood learning cause with your strategic meaningful gift giving. Your generosity will be a life changing cause for 1 – 4 year-olds for generations to come in your legacy for social good. Your donation will pay for desks, teachers and staff salaries, educational materials, operation supplies, and playground structures. We need you. Generosity shines.
Our Mission – to provide elements of nurturing care for children using Learning-Through-Play. Our Vision – to create opportunities that elevate rural children’s talents and abilities one town at a time
