ASK project

Started my first day of work with PACA today. The main job today was to work on the Answers, Solutions, Knowledge (ASK) project. Basically the ASK project is a initiative by AIESEC Africa to develop and and implement sustainable means of creating awareness about the deadly epidemic HIV/AIDS. And PACA is working with AIESEC KNUST to run the program in Obuasi. The interns that I mentioned in the previous post were all working on the ASK project for AIESEC KNUST. The official opening ceremony would be this coming saturday and there are still quite a bit of details yet to be finalised, most importantly that of funds to pay for the cost of the opening ceremony. The other interns have been working hard to secure sponsorship but due to the economic crisis, companies are not forthcoming with money. Will be making a trip down to the goldmining company in Obuasi tomorrow with Phillip and others to see if we can convince them to open their wallets. Fingers crossed people!
