Portland State University announced Antonio’s nomination for the 2010 Outstanding Alumnus Award. The nomination comes as recognition for his accomplishments through humanitarian work with Sky of Love, and in support of his commitment and dedication to making a lasting positive impact for the children of Ghana. Congratulations Antonio! We are glad your hard work has been recognized.

Sky of Love’s “Second Chance” program supports teenagers detained at a Correctional Center in Accra, Ghana. The inmates, 12 to 17 years old, come from living in the street or from broken and violent homes. Out of desperation and lack of guidance, they commit minor crimes to get food. They end up incarcerated to up to 3 years, in crowded cells, with very little food and air. We are planning to cook dinner for the 120 teens detained. The cost is only $120. If you can help, please make a donation at www.skyoflove.org, specifying that it is for the “Second Chance” project. Any amount, even small, can help us reach the $120 goal.
Thank you.
