Dear Consul General:
Our NGO wants to raise money here in the United States to help Ghana. We wish to hire Ghanan High School graduates or Secondary School graduates who would like to enter University but have not the funds. They would teach Aids Awareness and prevention by promoting abstinence before marriage to the Ghanan youth. Please see www.aidsfight.4t.com
We are going to raise this money through many sincere individuals here in the US who care about individuals there in Ghana. We are very concerned to see to tit that this money actually gets used for this purpose. Please help us to establish a relationship with a Ghanan bank that would work with us. So far each way we have looked the cost of sending money to your country is very high. Would you help us?
We would like to help your whole nation by preventing the horrors and great cost you will face if we do not effectively stop the spread of aids, which is coming if we do nothing. We need to find the most effective way to prevent the spread of this terrible disease and promote it. We want to prevent the suffering that will go along with it.
Also, I have a friend I have ‘adopted’ as my own son who lives in Accra. I am a poor American but I want to help this 19-year-old man. I would like to send him a little money from time to time to help him. However, the cost of doing so is so high it would cost me more money to send it than I have to send him. At the same time I realize he could make better use of the little I have better than I could. I have tried to figure out a way to send him the money without cost. I thought for instance that I might be able to open a bank account in his name in a bank that has branches both in the US And in Accra. I could deposit money here and he could withdraw it there. However I have not been able to find a Ghanan Bank that has a branch here in the US. I thought there would be one in NY because of your mission. Apparently I was wrong. And so far I have not found an American Bank that is interested. Can you help me with this also?
Thirdly, we an NGO that seeks Peace in the World, asks your government to participate in the following: www.letshelpharlem.4t.com This is to allow the US get some help in improving its treatment of Black Men in the US. Then in a sense we would be helping each other.
Sincerely,
