Speaking at the launch, Madam Ursula Owusu Ekuful said the foundation will help beneficiaries to develop the right skills and resilience; adding that leadership is not about personal accomplishment but uplifting others.

"I know that by putting our resources together, we will achieve lasting change which will provide individuals with the necessary resources, to build a prosperous future for themselves and their families".

According to her, being a Member of Parliament has placed her in a position to address numerous challenges facing her constituents in the area of education, health, sanitation, infrastructure development and security.
She therefore called on corporate bodies, religious organizations, philanthropists and international NGOs to come and support the foundation so it can train the youth in the constituency.
