Making a Difference Through Education and Technology
In 2018, my wife, Rafiatu Iddrisu Lee, and I moved from Kasoa in the Central Region to Kpone Bawaleshie in Greater Accra. On the same road as our house was Dream Seed Academy, a small independent school. The children’s voices as they came and went to school piqued my curiosity, leading me to visit the school. My experience in the UK as part of a community group that set up a Saturday school to support children’s educational development inspired me to engage further.
Upon meeting the school’s owners, Mr. & Mrs. Nortey, I saw their dedication to building something special for the community. I began contributing by conducting cultural talks during special events, teaching chess classes, and leading football training sessions. These efforts made me realize that I could make a positive impact on the children and the school.

My motivation to assist Dream Seed Academy stemmed from the impression it made on me. The passion and commitment of Mr. & Mrs. Nortey to support their local community were evident. This inspired me to contribute in any way I could.
As a former semi-professional footballer, my love for the sport also became a catalyst for change. During my morning jogs, I encountered children playing football on a nearby field. When I asked if they’d like formal training and the chance to form a team, their enthusiasm was overwhelming. The next morning, they arrived at my gate, ready for training. This led to regular sessions and eventually the formation of a youth team.
