Behind Every Smile, There’s a Story of Dedication
At Ryvanz-Mia Charity, our impact isn’t defined solely by the meals we serve, the classrooms we build, or the children we sponsor—it’s also defined by the incredible people behind it all. Every act of kindness, every life transformed, begins with the heart and hands of a team devoted to a single mission: creating a world where every child has the chance to thrive.
Meet the Founder: Mama Esi’s Legacy of Love
The story begins with Mrs. Esime Djentuh, affectionately known as Mama Esi. After facing profound personal loss, she turned her grief into compassion, founding Ryvanz-Mia Childcare in Ghana in 2006. Her vision was simple yet powerful—to give vulnerable children the love, care, and opportunity every child deserves.
Her story has inspired many, not only in Ghana but around the world, to live with purpose and give selflessly. Mama Esi’s unwavering compassion continues to guide the organization’s work today.
