A life changing story
At the age of 12, I left Ghana and arrived in Europe after crossing half of Africa on a five-year journey. I crossed the Sahara on foot, crossed the sea in a small boat, and saw many of my traveling companions die along the way. Since 2012, I have been working to ensure that what happened to me never happens again.

My story is coming to the big screen thanks to the confidence of major industry leaders: Atresmedia, Arcadia Motion Pictures (producers of ‘As Bestas’, winner of 13 Goyas and nominated for an Oscar) and Mundo Cero. Directed by Ibon Cormenzana and Daniel Sancho.
Having survived my journey, I understood that I wasn’t the strongest, but that I had won a lottery bigger than the EuroMillions: the right to life. Only 3% of us survived along the way. My mission was born out of a certainty: lack of education and information is the root of the problem. We must feed minds to create prosperity, not just stomachs.
Founded in 2012 with my first €6,000 saved as a bicycle mechanic and the support of Laura Santaló (€1,500) and Gerard Muñoz (€1,000). Today, what started as a small computer classroom has grown to 58 schools.
Nasco has 17 computer classrooms set up in rural areas.
We have 58 schools in Ghana integrated into the computerization project.
Thanks to your help, we have achieved 360 donations of complete computer equipment sent to Ghana.
