PLAY FOR A BETTER LIFE
THE MOST UNIQUE SPORTS FOR DEVELOPMENT NGO IN GHANA
Feel the power of sport.
ANOPA is an international sports project based in Cape Coast, Ghana. The NGO was founded in 2010 and uses sports, such as swimming, football and basketball, as an instrument for individual development, promotion of gender equity, peace building, inclusion and other important soft and social skills for kids in the Central Region of Ghana.
Our approach is based on the concept of sports for development - sport is not just an end in itself, but also an effective tool to help improve the lives of children, families and communities
