Supporting a Good Cause

Ghana is one of the world’s leading exporters of cocoa; however, cocoa farmers lack basic services.

The C360 Education Access Initiative is a beacon of hope for the rural cocoa communities, where poverty and deprivation have made education an unattainable dream for many children. At Cocoa360, they believe that every child deserves the chance to learn and reach their full potential, regardless of their background or circumstances. That’s why we, at Capture the Atlas, are committed to helping Cocoa360 remove every barrier to education that stands in their way through our Focus on Change initiative which aims to bring photographers from all around the world together, to use photography for a good cause.

In these communities, necessities like uniforms, books, transportation, tables and chairs, and teaching and learning materials are luxuries that many families simply cannot afford. Children are forced to walk long distances to school, often in the scorching sun or pouring rain, with nothing to carry their books in and no desks or chairs to sit on when they get there. This not only makes it difficult for them to concentrate on their studies but also puts their health and safety at risk.

We believe that when children are given the tools they need to succeed, they can break the cycle of poverty and create a brighter future for themselves and their communities.

The impact of this program cannot be overstated. It has transformed the lives of countless children in the cocoa communities, giving them the gift of education and the hope of a better future. Thanks to the C360 Education Access Initiative, they can now go to school with pride, knowing that they have everything they need to succeed. And that’s a feeling that no child should ever be denied.
