In 2012 its management was fully transferred to Ghana. Notable projectsEvery year Thrive Africa donate tens of thousands of books working closely with its partner Book-Cycle, the UK charity.[4] It recruits volunteers, who help local communities to establish school libraries and organise health and sanitation workshops.[5] From 2011 Thrive Africa’s volunteers have worked in orphanages, building libraries, building farms for caregivers of HIV/AIDS orphans, running sports lessons and educational workshops,[6][7][8] donating clothes and kits for football players.[3] In 2010 British Government and its development partners made the decision that Ghana should become fully self-sufficient and do without outside help by 2020. Nevertheless, about one third of people in this country live below the poverty line (less than $1.25 a day).[9] Therefore, the Thrive Africa’s management aimed at work with the local Ghanaian communities to create long term and self-sustainable projects.[1] References1. ^1 {{cite journal|title=Action Goes to Ghana|journal=Label News|date=April 2010|issue=11|page=6|url=http://www.lborosu.org.uk/media/label/downloads/issues/Label_2009-2010_11.pdf|accessdate=22 December 2013|author=Jo Wibrew|editor1-first=James|editor1-last=Spokoini|location=UK|format=PDF}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Animal care student plans African trip|url=http://www.sunderlandecho.com/news/local/all-news/animal-care-student-plans-african-trip-1-6285298|work=Sunderland Echo|publisher=Johnston Publishing|accessdate=20 December 2013|date=29 November 2013}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|title=Hail Weston student helping make future African football stars look the part|url=http://www.huntspost.co.uk/news/latest-news/hail_weston_student_helping_make_future_african_football_stars_look_the_part_1_2370498|author=Lauren Nash|work=Hunts Post 24|publisher=Archant Community Media Ltd|accessdate=20 December 2013|date=7 September 2013}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|last=Chilvers|first=Clive|title=The Charity BookCycle UK sends 40,000 Books to Ghana|url=http://www.demotix.com/news/1871945/charity-bookcycle-uk-sends-40000-books-ghana#media-1871620|work=Demotix|publisher=Corbis|accessdate=20 December 2013|date=14 March 2013}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Container of books heads to Africa|url=http://www.exeterexpressandecho.co.uk/Container-books-heads-Africa/story-11686108-detail/story.html|work=Express & Echo|publisher=Local World|accessdate=20 December 2013|date=25 March 2010}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=Caring Rebecca Set For African Adventure|url=http://www.eastdurham.ac.uk/1419/news_read.php?news=1938|work=East Durham College|accessdate=20 December 2013|date=27 November 2013}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Students Ghana-bound to help orphans|url=http://www.plymouthherald.co.uk/|work=The Herald|accessdate=20 December 2013|date=21 June 2012}} 8. ^{{cite web|title='Awful sights' made College student ponder|url=http://www.loucoll.ac.uk/news/awful-sights-made-college-student-ponder|work=Loughborough College|accessdate=20 December 2013|date=April 2013}} 9. ^{{cite web|last=Donati|first=Henry|title=Ghana: a future without aid?|url=http://blogs.dfid.gov.uk/2012/07/ghana-a-future-without-aid/|work=Department for International Development|accessdate=20 December 2013|date=25 July 2012}} External links
