Über uns

Fair River International Association for Development - (FARIAD) is an indigenous, private, voluntary, non-profit, non-governmental organisation (NGO), founded in 1998 and legally incorporated in May 2002 as an NGO to undertake a wide range of social and economic development activities aimed at alleviating hardship and vulnerability among marginalized and disadvantaged groups, in the areas of concern towards a positive emancipation. FARIAD is a member of Ghana Association of Private Voluntary Organisations in Development (GAPVOD), Ghana HIV/AIDS Network (GHANET), and other reputable and well-coordinated networks. Its vision is to be an innovative, accessible and nationally and internationally recognized organisation committed to achieving the expectations of those it served. FARIAD's mission is:

- to raise environmental conservation, public health awareness and consciousness of the target beneficiaries.
