Mission:
NAVOG foundation is a local non-profit and a non-governmental organization working to assist the less privileged and deprived communities through volunteerism. The group is a not for-profit one with no political or religious affiliations. We are involved in various social development activities in several fields especially Education, Environment and Empowerment of the rural poor.
The Organization was founded by a young Ghanaian (Ec-lumor Kwame Prince) and a group of local volunteers in 2003 after having volunteered with a local non-governmenat organisation called Philanthropist Host Family Service (PHILA) in the volta region of Ghana. With his skills in volunteerism and social work, he organized his fellow students for volunteer clean up work.
Excited by Ec-lumor's enthusiasm, the local community encouraged Ec-lumor to extend his volunteer idea beyond his school community in the future. Those encouraging words led to the birth of NAVOG foundation, now registered as a youth charity non-profit Voluntary Organization in Ghana under the companies code 1963, from the Registrar General Department of Ghana with Registration number G 24, 456. and run by a 3 person board, and host families including Ec-lumor Kwame Prince in 2008.
