Akosuah Agyei, The College of New Rochelle

Akosuah Agyei embarked on a fundraising mission through Model United Nations to help Ghanaian women who cannot afford surgical costs.  She volunteered at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra, Ghana, educating and preparing women with obstetric fistula for surgery. Last June, she established a summer camp for young girls in the West Virginia Appalachians. Akosuah offered an educational experience to the campers who sometimes didn’t have enough food to eat on a given day. She plans to offer another camp experience this summer for these young girls living in abject poverty
