Meet Educate Ghana's Leader

"You can't waste your time here on this earth without doing anything. What you have to do is impact life! To help people to be able to stand on their feet." -- Meshach Bondzie

Meshach Bondzie and PROFESA

Meshach Bondzie started the PROFESA Academy after witnessing a growing number of young adults in poverty-stricken areas being forced to drop out of high school for economic reasons. He aspired to provide these youths with an education that would open new opportunities other than selling goods in the streets of Accra.

From Humble Beginnings

With only a few used and outdated typewriters and the space in the back of his father's church, Meshach began working tirelessly to give young students the skills they needed to secure a lasting place in Ghana's workforce. Using his frustration with the educational system of Ghana and his passion for reform, Meshach has since helped 117 women graduate from PROFESA with computer degrees.

A Dedicated Leader

Meshach is not only the only administrator at the school, he also teaches advanced office practice, advanced typing, and advanced short hand. He is a mentor to many and an inspiration to many more.
