Gye Nyame Development Foundation (GNDF) UK

Qui sommes-nous

Gye Nyame Development Foundation(GNDF) is a Charity/Non-Governmental organisation which concerns itself with the total development of mankind. GNDF has through the year’s sought to bridge the gap between the privilege and the under privileged.
Cornelis Des Bouvrie and Kingsley Dickson during their 1997 National Service in Simbrofo Village, Ghana, West Africa respectively, observed how rural and urban folks were struggling with their basic daily needs and with little or no infrastructures, books and teaching aids/materials in schools leading to unrealistic outcomes. In exploring ways and avenues to help offset the sufferings of the community especially the children, in April 2001 ‘Cornel’s Human Development Foundation was birthed to provide humanitarian needs to the poor and the deprived. On 11th July 2007 we registered As Gye Nyame Development Foundation in Ghana. On the 19th of October 2001 the UK branch was formally formed and setup as Head Office by Kingsley Dickson with the support of Cornelis Des Bouvrie and hard work of others to help tackle the rise in anti-social behaviour and promoting positive youth development in disadvantaged communities in the UK. Over six years of hard work and determination GNDF(UK) got on the 5th of June 2007 as Gye Nyame Development Foundation.
