11-year-old British-Ghanaian child author, Sarah Afua Kittoe, has fulfilled her promise made two years ago to build a library for a school in Tema, Ghana.
She has completed a full e-library and computer lab for the school and is currently working on establishing a physical book library.
Sarah, who was nine years old when she made the pledge during her first visit to Ghana in 2022, embarked on a media tour across the country and later visited her father’s alma mater, Saint Paul’s Methodist Preparatory School in Tema, where she committed to supporting the school.
At the age of nine, Sarah had already authored and published three books.
Now, she has completed and published her fourth book, titled ‘Ama and the Lost Key’, with a Ghanaian theme.
Sarah generously donates all proceeds from book sales to charity, including organizations like Centrepoint and the Wednesday Club at West Croydon Methodist Church in London.
Driven by her desire to give back, Sarah has refurbished the library at Saint Paul’s Methodist Preparatory School with modern amenities, including 20 new HP Desktop Computers with relevant learning apps, new desks, chairs, and boxes of books.
Through fundraising efforts and book sales, Sarah has demonstrated her commitment to charitable causes and community development.
Her latest book, “Ama and the Lost Key”, takes readers on a captivating journey through Ghanaian landscapes, emphasizing the importance of unity and discovery.
Sarah’s dedication to philanthropy and her passion for storytelling make her an inspirational figure for young authors and individuals worldwide.
Despite her success as a published author, Sarah remains humble and expresses her diverse interests in art, design, music, gymnastics, sports, and food.
As Sarah continues to make strides in the literary world, her future endeavors are filled with promise and potential.
