The Bentley-Mmofra Trom Project
The Partnership
Since 2006, Bentley has worked closely with The Mmofra Trom Center near Somanya, Ghana, to provide services to disadvantaged children in the surrounding villages.
The Purpose
The primary goal of the Mmofra Trom Center is to provide access to education, health care, job skills training, and employment opportunities. The goal of Bentley’s involvement with the center is to contribute to its intention of becoming self-sustaining, while furthering the education of Bentley students through service-learning projects for the center.
This Site
This site provides information about the project, the center, and our partners in this mission. You will also find stories from participating students, our "Ghana alumni," that highlight their experiences and detail projects they initiated. For students interested in traveling to Ghana with Bentley, check out the current travel opportunities information. Bentley faculty and staff are heavily involved in the project as well, and you can review their scholarly activities regarding the project. Please peruse the site, and contact Diane Kellogg, program director of The Mmofra Trom Project, with any additional questions you may have.
