CCF supports UG student to graduate 4-years programme

After four years of gaining admission to the University of Ghana (UG), Francis Ayawuli Yaw, an underprivileged student is finally a proud graduate.

Having hailed from a nothing-to-write-home-about background, he has finally realized his dream.

This would not have been possible but for the intervention of Crime Check Foundation (CCF).

In 2019, Ayawuli gained admission to UG to study Economics with Statistics.

His parents who could barely make ends meet were unable to pay his admission fee.

It was a depressing moment for the brilliant student who had excelled in the West African Senior High School Certificate Examination.

“I had admission to study at the University of Ghana but I had no joy upon receiving my admission letter because I knew my family did not have the means to support me,” he recalled.

Ayawuli did not relent in making efforts to secure support though it was daunting.

He thought his hopes were dashed until he was introduced to CCF.

“As people around me knew about my family’s struggles and also knew how I excelled, someone told me of CCF’s Educational Support Fund,” he recounted.

Crime Check Foundation accepted him and offered him a scholarship.

“They supported me throughout my four-year course at the University,” he said.

Francis Ayawuli could not hide his joy when he visited the offices of CCF to show his appreciation to the Executive Director, Ibrahim Oppong Kwarteng, and donors who contributed towards the milestone he has chalked.

“I don’t know what would have become of me. I would have joined bad company.”

“I thank Mr. Ibrahim Oppong Kwarteng, the entire management and staff of CCF and cherished donors,” he said.

Ayawuli seized the moment to appeal to registered donors of the Foundation and the general public to continue to support the generosity of Crime Check Foundation (CCF) to enable it to support many others who were in his situation.

CCF’s Educational Support Fund gives hope to needy but brilliant students who usually lose the opportunity to further their education because of poverty.
