Our story begins with a blind man from Pakro, Ghana.
A story of a marginalized people in search of community.
Heartfull Foundation was birthed out of a desire of a blind man. His name is Philip Lartey, popularly known as "hello, hello". He arrived at the doorsteps of the co-founders one faithful afternoon in 2015. His request was simple. He has been praying for God to send help to the disabled community in their town. That request led to the first ministry of Heartfull Foundation called "Rod and Staff ": A disabled and elderly fellowship that gave a safe space for spiritual fellowship, and communal empowerment for people with disability.
Since then, we have developed a variety of ministries, initiatives, and services that serve several local communities in Ghana. From school outreaches to technical training, we are making it possible for individuals to level up their skills to give back to the communities they live in. This is our very calling! To be a movement of change within the local communities we live in.
You are part of our story too. Yes, you! Together, we have initiated change beyond our expectations. We are Heartfull... we are the bridge!
