Supporting the communities

Community Image

Losing a loved one is an unimaginable pain, and for many families, the financial burden that follows only deepens the sorrow. Too often, we have seen families forced to auction cherished properties to cover funeral expenses, disrupting their lives, dividing loved ones, and reinforcing cycles of poverty. We have witnessed the heartbreaking struggle—families unable to pay mortuary bills, relatives scrambling for funds to bury their loved ones and perform traditional rites, and children forced to abandon school due to financial strain.

Akworsi was created to change this narrative. We believe that every person deserves a dignified burial without devastating financial consequences.

  • Our Vision

    A world where every individual, regardless of social status, background, or circumstance, receives a dignified farewell; where communities come together with empathy, unity, and shared responsibility to comfort families in grief.
