A changemaker is someone who defies all odds positively to make an impact in the world.

 

 

Growing up, Christabel Wireko Arthur has always been hardworking and dedicated, knowing the balance between taking academics seriously and engaging in other profitable activities. She believes in a world where all people are inspired to believe in themselves, and their abilities empowered to reach their full potential. She envisions a world where access to good roads, clean drinking water, excellent health care and quality education will not be an opportunity but a part of life. Due to her drive and passion to inspire others and see a better Ghana and the world at large, she teamed up with other colleagues to set up a foundation called the VisionSave foundation with the aim of moving homeless street kids with no hope for a brighter future into comfortable homes and enrolling them in schools in the nearest future. For the past years, VisionSave foundation has been providing some of these kids with clothes, books, and teaching lessons during the weekends. As an Intern at Bulk Oil Storage and transportation Ghana, she learnt about the diversities of life and the need to develop new skills outside the classroom. Christabel is passionate about any task given to her and she does it with accuracy and precision. She is currently living her dream as a Materials engineering student and is looking forward to being a professor in the same field.
