Get to know our Foundation
and see how we work
The Omenaa Foundation is a charitable NGO originated by Omenaa Mensah who remains its good spirit. The Foundation’s key field of activity is supporting education in its broadest sense. We support street children in Africa who do not have access to education, but we also help the most needy children in Poland…
Targets of Foundation
Education
because everything Omenaa has achieved in life, she owes to education. When she was a kid, her dad used to say: “Cars, houses, jewellery – you can always lose. What we have in our heads, no one can ever take away from us…
Tolerance
because Omenaa, due to her origin and skin colour, especially in her childhood, experienced many unpleasant situations resulting from the lack of tolerance in the Polish society. Hence, in her activities she attaches…
Cooperation
because as befits a businesswoman, Omenaa sees great potential in business development in Africa. Therefore, her ambition is to help create and strengthen business, social or cultural cooperation between Poland and Africa…
OUR MOST IMPORTANT PROJECTS
and help us bring help
Omenaa Foundation runs various charity projects. We focus our efforts on helping children in Africa, mainly Ghana, but also children in Poland. Our activities concentrate not only on charitable help but also on promoting tolerance in Poland.
#Ekotomy! EcoArt for a noble cause!
Omenaa Mensah, the founder and president of the Omenaa Foundation, has joined forces with Hanna Zdanowska, the President of the City of Łódź, to initiate the #Ekotomy campaign.

The Omenaa Foundation also supports Polish children who have access to education, but due to limited financial means, very often do not have the necessary computer equipment. This problem has been brutally exposed by the pandemic. After its outbreak, it turned out that there were computers in children’s homes and foster families, but many kids had to share one…
SCHOOL FOR STREET CHILDREN IN GHANA
When the idea of building a school in Tema, more than 8,000 km from Warsaw, was born a few years ago, it seemed rather crazy and very risky. But it worked! The Omenaa Foundation found partners to support the project and built a school for street children in Ghana. The KIDS HAVEN SCHOOL was officially opened in September 2021…
CHARITY SHOW PROMOTING RESPECT AND TOLERANCE
The Omenaa Foundation is the initiator and producer of a theatre play entitled “CZARNO TO WIDZĘ, czyli wymieszani, posortowani” (Eng. “THE ODDS ARE NOT GOOD, mixed and segregated”) , which touches on the subject of widely understood tolerance in Poland. The play is about important and serious things, but it is a comedy which makes the audience laugh a lot…
EVERY SHIRT HELPS
It’s a campaign carried out by Omenaa and the OMENAA FOUNDATION in partnership with the James Button start-up, which undertook to donate some of the income from each shirt sold to the school in Ghana…
