Threads by Dreads designer and founder Christiana Afotey has set up the scholarship prize in honour of her late mother. “This award will carry on part of my mother’s nurturing legacy — aide in community re-investment — by giving local scholars an opportunity to further their education and contribute to building a brighter future for young adults in Ghana” says Afotey. Ten qualified student candidates across respective high schools in Ghana will be awarded with the Mrs Fedelia Adokailey Mensah Scholarship award. Each winner will be awarded $250 (£190) in March 2017 during which they will be notified by a surprise visit to their classrooms.
