Have you ever come across a need, or seen someone in need, and wanted to help, but felt ill-equipped to help, and/or just didn’t know what to do, or felt like it wasn’t your place to help? TK Azaglo, Future of Africa Founder and Associate Dean of Students at Ashesi University, saw a need and didn’t know how to help. We follow him as he first turned his car around, his heart beating faster, and ended up creating a whole new context and community for homeless youth in Ghana, Africa. He and his wife Nikki share how they “embraced their discomfort” and now walk with these kids who are The Future of Africa.
NOTE: TK founded Future of Africa during his undergraduate studies at Wilfrid Laurier University in 2008.
