Citi Newsroom: CorpsAfrica/Ghana hosts Pitch Day 2026 to boost community-led dev’t initiatives

by Jonathan Adjei

CorpsAfrica/Ghana has successfully held its 4th Pitch Day in Accra, a flagship fundraising event aimed at supporting innovative, community-driven development projects across rural Ghana.

The 31 March 2026 event brought together all 67 CorpsAfrica Volunteers and their Community Counterparts, reinforcing the organisation’s model of grassroots collaboration and locally driven solutions to development challenges.

Six volunteers — Sadia, Abdul-Razak, Beatrice, Abdul-Fatawa, Godson, and Fatimatu — presented projects developed in close partnership with their host communities. The initiatives include poultry farming, irrigation and sheep rearing, pig farming, a seedling nursery, a water expansion system, a corn milling facility and catfish farming.

Support Our Work

CorpsAfrica addresses two of Africa’s most difficult challenges: engaging youth and helping rural communities overcome extreme poverty. We recruit and train motivated volunteers to live and work in rural, under-resourced areas in their own countries. They collaborate with the community to design and implement small-scale projects that address their top priorities and, by doing so, gain the skills and experience that lay the foundation for personal and professional success.

CorpsAfrica trusts youth and communities to help each other.
