Yonso Project Model School — How your bike purchase changes lives

Most people purchase a bike to ride. At Booomers International, it's much more than a just a bike purchase. Each and every bike purchase helps build an education system at our headquarters in Ghana. The Yonso Project Model School was started by Booomers International founder Kwabena Danso. As of 2022, the school is educating over 470 students.

"Quality education must not be a privilege for the few, but a right for all children. The vision of the school has been to train the next generation of leaders that the world needs, most especially our continent, Africa. Our goal is to re-orientate children and to challenge them to think out of the box. We are training leaders who understand the need to serve, to find solutions and to bring about change."

Bikes allow exploration and learning, whether in your own city or many thousands of kilometers away. Thank you to all our Booomers customers over the years.
