A Better Tomorrow
For Every Child, Every Family, Every Village
We are a faith-based non-profit organization that works in Ghana, West Africa, to help break the cycle of poverty by equipping the Ghanaian people with the knowledge and resources to become self-sustaining by creating economic development, access to education and healthcare and experience an opportunity to grow in their faith.
The mission of ODI is to see lives transform from barely surviving to thriving.
Our Story
ODI was founded in 2007 when Jim Sullivan, a retired pastor and businessman, went on a pilgrimage to Ghana. Jim was drawn to the people of Ghana because of their culture, traditions, and desire to move beyond the extreme poverty that has besieged their country for generations.
Our Projects
Kontonso Medical Clinic
There are only 23 nurses and one motorcycle to reach all 9 villages Ahyiayemu Healthcare Center serves. Villagers are dying because these dedicated nurses can’t get to them.
They have only one exam bed. Three women having a baby at the same time means two women will be on the floor to give birth.
They need an additional motor vehicle, nebulizers for breathing emergencies, vaccines for preventive care, additional beds, and more!
The Ahyiayemu Healthcare Center Serving Nine Villages
ODI has a goal of raising $20,000 to help this medical center in Kontonso with tools and equipment to accomplish its mission of providing much-needed health care in these surrounding villages.

We are a faith-based organization using our faith as a guiding principal for the work we do in Ghana. Click below to view our statement of faith.
Farming is a way that we can help the Ghanaians generate an income so they can support themselves and their families. Check out the Ghana Project for more details.
Due to the extreme poverty very few children have access to education. We want to help provide education for these kids so that they are able to have more job opportunities in the future.
There is a significant need for medical assistance in Ghana. We have had the privileged of sending several medical teams over to care for the underprivileged and to teach basic healthcare and hygiene.
