My efforts focus primarily on long-term, systemic support. Refugees from Ukraine received incredible help from Poles at the very beginning of the war. Now it is time to offer our guests from across the eastern border a fresh start. Education has always been and will always remain a key element in all my initiatives, because it provides freedom to anyone who wants to grow and move forward. That’s why the idea to create RiO Edu Centrum was born.
— Omenaa Mensah, President of the Omenaa Foundation
For many years, Omenaa Mensah and her Foundation have been supporting the education of street children in Ghana and children from orphanages in Poland. However, in response to the dramatic situation in Ukraine, the Foundation decided to also get involved in helping refugees — whose numbers are still growing and who need to find their place in our country. That’s why a daytime support and education center — RiO Edu Centrum — was established in Warsaw. It provides FREE assistance to Ukrainian mothers in finding employment and ensures access to education for their children.
In February 2022, war breaks out in Ukraine. In response to the challenges faced by refugees, the daytime support and education center RiO Edu Centrum is established. It provides free assistance to Ukrainian mothers in entering the workforce and ensures access to education for their children.
In response to emerging needs, RiO VIBE Centrum is established with the goal of supporting children and youth through psychological assistance, psychoeducation, and motor and social development.
With care for the development of children and youth, we are restructuring RiO Edu Centrum to fulfill our Mission even more effectively.
