The 2025 NFL Super Bowl champions, Philadelphia Eagles, partnered with STEM Ambassadors, IMOTEP Institute Charter High School to impact deprived communities in the Volta Region.
Now in its third year, the project has reached over 2,000 Ghanaians, providing vital services such as health screening, medications, water filtration, solar light installation, and the introduction of hydroponics.
This year, the project, led by STEM Director and program developer Shirley Posey, continues to grow and deepen its impact across Ghana, specifically in the Volta Region, including communities like Keta and Woe.
The group, together with the OKB Hope Foundation, provided free medical screening and medication to the people of Paneyto, a small village in the Volta Region. Other projects included donations of pads, bags, shoes, lights, and clean drinking water.
The people of the Paneyto expressed their gratitude to the Philadelphia Eagles and IMOTEP for their support.
“You’ve helped us with our needs. The elders and chiefs of this community of this community thank you a lot for helping us satisfy our needs.
“I want to also use this opportunity to thank IMOTEP, Philadelphia Eagels and OKB Hope Foundation and the whole Philadelphia Community we say thank you!,” The community rep concluded.
After wrapping up a successful project in Paneyto, their next stop was at Tegi EP School, Keta, Woe were excitement filled the air as students were introduced to hands-on STEM activities.
STEM Director and program developer Shirley Posey spoke on the idea behind the project.
“So the module that I developed really helped into cultivating global leaders,” she said.
“We realized that a lot of our communities just like in Philadelphia and Ghana have a lot of needs such as addressing health equity, contributing to the health economy, food and water insecurity so why not empower young people and give them the tools and resources that they need to make them feel better. I’m really excited about what we’ve achieved.”
Community and Parent Engagement Curator Deborah Toney Moore also commended the Super Bowl champion Eagles for being part of the project in Ghana.
“We want to thank the Philadelphia Eagles and the IMOTEP High School and all our wonderful partners. Shirley Posey needs to be commended for bringing live to a village with no electricity. The Eagles wanted to be a part of the great things Shirley was going to do in Ghana.
“The Eagles believe in going green and they wanted to make sure our programs work. They made sure we’re funded and supported.”
After another successful project in the Volta Region, the group organized American football drills and a flag football game at Emancipation Beach to celebrate their role in putting smiles on the faces of people in small communities in Ghana.
