Life experience as child encouraged me to volunteer and help others in which ever way possible to defend, protect, save and teach the true way to right and harmonious living not only religion but all spheres of life. I became a volunteer of (PPAG) Planned Parenthood Association of Ghana in 2000. Elected as youth chairman in 2001-2004, I organized, workshops and training for many volunteers and youth in various districts and communities on SRH and HIV/AIDS in Central Region. In collaboration with other stakeholders lunched Young and Wise in Southern Ghana, as the chairperson. I advocated for Healthy Life and Wise Choices among the youth. I activated YAM (Youth Action Movement) in C/Region for policies to help the Youth. As a Peer Educator, Youth Facilitator, Advocate and Focal Point Person, in 2004-2006, I launched a branch in University of Cape Coast, to educate on HIV/AIDS on campus. I completed in 2006 now a patron to them. My aim still continues for a better choice for the youth to abstain, be faithful and condom use to all. To reduce stigmatization, is still on going and help is much needed. B.A Economics and Sociology Combined. Diploma Computer Engineering. WLAN LAN, expert
