MPABOA365 Touches Down in Eastern Region – 4th Edition Recap

Walking With Purpose, Giving With Heart

On Friday, May 16, 2025, Rest Philanthropy and Metanoia Foundation embarked on a heartfelt journey — bringing shoes and educational stationery to the resilient children of Kyereban Basic School in Ghana’s Eastern Region.

This marks the 4th edition of Mpaboa365, a growing movement that believes every child deserves dignity — from head to toe and heart to mind.

From the North to the East — Our Journey So Far

The journey began in Ghana’s Upper East Region, where over the past three editions, Mpaboa365 has walked alongside hundreds of school children — many of whom received their first ever pair of shoes.

With our consistent partners Haven of Love Foundation and Winpang Youth Initiative, we witnessed barefoot children step into their classrooms with a new sense of pride, confidence, and joy.

A New Region, A Familiar Passion

Now, in collaboration with Metanoia Foundation, we’ve extended that love to the Eastern Region. Though Kyereban is miles away from the North, the need is the same — and so is the dream:

A Ghana where no child walks to school in pain or learns without tools.

Why Shoes and Stationery?

Because no child should bleed walking to school.Because no future should be written without a pen.Because small gifts, given with love, unlock big potential.

Shoes provide protection, pride, and possibility.Stationery empowers minds, strengthens confidence, and keeps learning alive.

More Than Charity — A Movement of Solidarity

At Rest Philanthropy, we don’t just donate — we show up, we listen, and we affirm. This project isn’t about charity — it’s about solidarity. It’s about walking side by side with communities and reminding every child that they matter.

Thank You for Walking With Us

To our donors, volunteers, and community leaders — thank you.Your kindness laced every shoe, filled every pencil case, and touched every heart.

As Mpaboa365 grows, we carry with us every smiling face, every dusty foot now covered, and every child who now believes that they, too, deserve to dream.

See you in the next region. Until then — keep walking.
