Dynamic Works Foundation empowers youth

The Executive Director of the Dynamic Works Foundation, Gloria Cann, has urged the youth to focus on their education, alongside their creative pursuits.

She made the call during a talent summit held in Accra last Wednesday.

The summit served as a motivational platform for the participants to explore career options and seek guidance from educational and creative industry professionals.

Ms Cann emphasised the importance of combining education with talent to secure a successful future.

"Adolescents should not think that because they have a talent, they can abandon their studies.”

"Education shapes lives and opens doors, even for those with remarkable gifts," she added.

She, therefore, urged them to remain focused on their education, while putting their talents to good use.

She called on all young people to recognise their potential and make good use of it, while furthering their education.

Ms Cann said improving one's talent while focusing on education was the surest way to reduce unemployment among the youth.

"If the youth combine their skills with education, it will shape their lives and they will not become a burden to society," she said. 

Mission

The Dynamic Works Foundation's mission is to shape the future of talented adolescents to make them leaders in their respective fields.

The foundation also provides vital support for adolescents with talent through scholarships and resources.

The Executive Director also revealed that the foundation currently assists students from various educational backgrounds, with some already attending prestigious universities.

This assistance comes in the form of full scholarships and half scholarships, providing educational materials for the students and many others.

"Investing in education alongside talent empowers these young individuals. We support their growth through initiatives such as the Girl Child Empowerment Project," she added.
