YOUMEWE Ghana is an evolving project that shows the ingenuity, creativity, and potential of young people in remote areas of Ghana. YOUMEWE is teaching daily hour-long programming lessons to kids in Ghana. They are learning how to develop apps and video games. They have been taking on increasingly complex projects like simple 3D engine development and developing an AI that can play soccer with itself. The students in Ghana have managed to create numerous amazing games and applications despite not having access to good internet, electricity, and other services. This program is proof that the next generation of great programmers, software developers, and tech geniuses can come from the humblest of the beginning. All we have to do is invest our time and money to show them the way to success. Let’s invest in the next generation of Ghanaian kids and build a better world where we all share in the fruits of each other’s labor.
YOUMEWE is now looking to take this project to the next level. We have been teaching daily lessons to the kids of Ghana and the kids have shown how much they can accomplish with our support. As our next step, we were to work on creating the next set of offerings that will really open doors for our students and help them reach their true potential.
