Today's Choices, Inc - Sweetwater Ministires, Ghana Details
Sweetwater Ministries was established through Today's Choices—USA by two American women who desired to help young girls in Ghana, West Africa acquire vocational skills training, come to know Christ and be discipled in the Word of God. We have been ministering in Ghana, West Africa since 1993 by operating a vocational day school and in 2005 we expanded and became a residential vocational school. \The school is operated by Ghanaians and there are 24 girls who are currently living at Sweetwater House. Many have been abused physically, emotionally, or sexually, and some were barely surviving on the street, sleeping on the dirt floor of outside shops, some were recently released from slavery in neighboring countries. Sweetwater House, through Today's Choices—USA, operates solely through contributions, which are tax-deductible and go straight to the house and girls. \The girls are between the ages of 16 and 24 when they are admitted to the boarding facility of Sweetwater House. They undergo vocational training for a period of 3 years. The primary skills taught are Sewing, Cosmetology, Baking, English, Basic Business Management, Basic Health and Hygiene, Fabric Dying, and other supplimental skills.
