Education adds value to a person's life. It is instrumental in the pursuit of development, at personal, family and community levels, as well as at macro-levels of nations, regions and the world.

To Be Worldwide is a Foundation that helps children in developing countries realise their full potential, so that later they can help build their communities.

We have made a meaningful and measurable contribution towards access to facilities for quality education.

To Be Worldwide was established in 2002 by Nellie Ekua Kirschner-Timmer who was born in Takoradi, Ghana and is of Dutch/Ghanaian decent.

We operate offices in the Netherlands and Ghana. Our team in Ghana (please visit To Be Team for details) is responsible for the daily running of the Centres and rolling out the concept of the Eductional Resource Centres to other areas of Ghana.
