Project Scope
The Jesse Brooks Foundation was established in memory of ten year old Jesse Brooks who, while on her first and only mission trip to Montana, lost her life in an automobile accident while returning home. In 2007 Good Shepherd's Happy Children's Home was built in Ghana, West Africa. This home currently provides safe haven to 40 children who had been left orphaned or abandoned. Daily operation are overseen by a local Ghanaian pastor and local board of directors. Today 52 additional children are in need of a home and care and EMI has been asked to come and design the new mission team home which is funded for construction and the second children's home (planning for immediate housing for 100 children and room to grow) on a new 2.5 acre plot of land.
Come and be a part of this redemptive ministry in Ghana, West Africa which rescues children who would otherwise have little hope.
