In October 2010 Eugenia received an award from Shea Yeleen International in Washington DC for all her hard work and committment to the women who produce the Shea butter in the North of Ghana. Also in attendance was Ms Rahama Wright, President of Shea Yeleen International who presented her with the award.
The United State African Development Foundation ( USADF) awarded Eugenia a grant in 2009 to expand the marketing of Shea Butter. Eugenia is very dedicated, reliable and trustworthy. Without her attributes the business would not have thrived.
Pictures to follow soon:
Also to come new design labels for the products.
Speaking to USADF staff, Ms. Akuete stated “I am from southern Ghana and the women I work with live in the north. Yet, I have a connection to them and I am working to fulfill their needs so that they can buy medication and even send their daughters to school.” She then added “It is because of the USADF grant that I am able to do this. USADF’s funding is touching the lives of women and children in rural Ghana.”
USADF established programming in Ghana in 1984. Ghana’s current portfolio stands at nineteen investment projects totaling nearly $3.2 million dollars.
