Our sports coaching program enables our volunteers to really put their personality into work, and enable children and youth to develop their sports talents. Volunteers can choose to work with either the boys, girls, or both teams. We have four different categories of age groups: U-10, U-13, U-15, and U-17

Our volunteer program aims to give the children in the surrounding towns and villages a more sustainable education. The schools are not as organized as western schools and with our program we want to try to bridge the gap. Private schools have 50-100 students with classes ranging from 5-30 pupils, whereas public schools can have up to 1500 students with classes of 50-80 pupils. When the number of pupils in a class becomes too high, the schools can't always afford to split the class because they don't have enough teachers.

Our projects in education and sports are changing the lives of the people we are working with. We are giving lots of children living in poverty access to free education. We give children access to the sports they love and we are creating pathways to stop the cycle of poverty. We are giving every child access to basic medical care by providing health insurance, providing educational materials and school uniforms, enrolling our youth with I.T training programs, educating communities on the prevention of diseases, and addressing sanitational issues.
What we have accomplished:
1. Scholarships to get K1-12 children into schools and young adults into universities; to make sure everyone we work with receives basic level education at the least.
2. Worked with local schools to fully sponsor student boarding for teenagers who live far from schools; higher-level and senior soccer teammates living in the same buildings.
3. Health Insurance to our soccer team players and students through all age groups and genders; as many are unable to afford it. Over 1000 children are currently supported by Goals and Grades Ghana.
4. Donations of school equipment for all ages, from picture books to college-level textbooks, notebooks, and stationary.
5. Donations of soccer shoes, soccer uniforms, shin pads, goals, soccer balls, coaching equipment, etc. to over hundreds of children across Ghana.
6. Construct and organize competitions for our soccer teams to play and compete in.
7. Empowerment and support of our youth women’s soccer team; involving them in more tournaments and events to promote equality and provide greater opportunities for young girls to follow their dreams.
8. Built relations and in contact with football agents and clubs (Local and Foreign); to help scout our players and give them opportunities outside Accra.
9. Ensure that all football trainings have ample amounts of water for all players; a struggle faced in the past by many soccer clubs.
10. Provided multiple schools and soccer clubs with custom Goals and Grades Ghana face masks and hand sanitizer; provided to all students, teachers, and coaches; to keep communities clean and safe from Covid-19.
11. Created short films and documentaries to showcase our work, raising funds to support the NGO internationally.
