About Giving Hands Foundation
Who We Are
The Giving Hands Foundation (GHF) stands at the forefront of societal change in rural Africa. As a registered NGO under Ghanaian law, we dedicate ourselves to overcoming mobility challenges through innovative Non-Motorized Transportation (NMT) solutions.
We bridge the mobility gap in rural Africa, transforming lives by providing Non-Motorized Transportation. Every pedal stroke takes us closer to a world where distance is no longer a barrier to education, healthcare, and economic opportunity.
