With roots deeply anchored in Northern Ghana, RAINS has a proud history of pioneering community-driven initiatives that uplift children, women, and vulnerable populations.

We work alongside communities, government agencies, civil society organizations, and development partners to build lasting change, one community at a time. RAINS continues to be a catalyst for inclusive growth, ensuring that the most vulnerable are not left behind.
RAINS works with communities and development partners to improve the quality of life for vulnerable groups especially children, women, girls and people with disabilities by strengthening local structures to take actions to promote and ensure fairness for all people in the society.
