Arise e.V. - Eine Schule für Ghana
10.Years Arise - Anniversary Celebration on two Continents
In 2025, we as ”Arise e.V. – Eine Schule für Ghana” proudly celebrated our 10th anniversary, marking a decade of commitment to education, community, and opportunity. The milestone was honored with heartfelt celebrations in both Ahrensburg, Germany, and Kokrobite, Ghana — a powerful reflection of the deep connection between our two communities. In Ahrensburg, long-time supporters, partners, and volunteers gathered to look back on the journey, share stories, and renew their dedication to our mission. Meanwhile, in Kokrobite, students, teachers, and families came together for one week for a vibrant celebration full of music, dance, and gratitude — a testament to the impact of the school in the local community. We thank everyone who has walked this path with us over the past ten years. Together, we’ve built more than a school — we’ve built a future.
About Us
Who We Are
Arise e.V. is a German NGO founded to support the education of underprivileged children in Tuba-Kokrobite, Ghana. The organisation runs an elementary school that provides free educational services to brilliant but needy children in the Tuba and Kokrobite communities. Arise e.V subscribes to the educational philosophy of practice that fosters rigorous, self-motivated growth for children in all areas of their development to nurture each child’s natural desire for knowledge, understanding, and respect.
Our approach encourages their will for learning and their strive to gain new abilities through effective teaching approaches that advance personalized learning. We’re currently building a new and bigger school building to reach even more children to give them the education they deserve!

Why What we Do Matters
Student Experience
, Arise e.V
“I love being in Arise because my teacher is friendly and personly helps me out of class periods. I love the food we are served especially the “Waakye” served on Thursdays. Some day, I wish to be a Police Office and Arise gives me the opportunity to realise that dream”

“I wasn’t lucky to have a formal education because my parents couldn’t afford it. Yet, I would want my kids to be educated, and arise makes that possible for my two kids.”
Vida Brenya, Mother of Two
Teacher Experience
, Arise e.V
“I could have gone to any other school, but at Arise I feel like I can do the most for the kids. Coming from an unprivileged background myself, I know how it feels for the kids.
I have always had a passion for teaching, back home in the north I used to teach math before teaching myself.
I want to continue that and do my part in education for all at Arise!”
