Sarah Afua Kittoe, a kindhearted 11-year-old British-Ghanaian author, has built an e-library and computer lab for Saint Paul’s Methodist Preparatory School in Tema.

This fulfils a commitment she made at the age of 10 during her first trip to Ghana, which included stops at several media outlets and her father's alma mater, Saint Paul's Methodist Preparatory School in Tema, where she pledged her support.

Kittoe beyond charity

When she was nine, she wrote and published three books: The Friendship Club, Lindsey and the Blue Fox, and Sarah Kittoe’s Colouring Book for Toddlers.

Kittoe completed and released her fourth book, Ama and the Lost Key, with a Ghanaian theme. The book launch is set for Saturday, April 6, 2024, at the Croydon Library in London. The youngster plans to complete a physical block at Saint Paul’s Methodist Preparatory School.

When she donated to Saint Paul’s Methodist Preparatory School in Tema, Kittoe’s compassionate personality did not surprise her parents, Albert and Nozipho Kittoe.

Her e-library comes after the lead pastor of Alpha Hour, Pastor Elvis Agyemang, donated machines and hospital beds, among other items, to the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital to mark his birthday.
