The LLC students are planning a 5K Walk on May 16, 2025 to raise funds from their community. The goal is to build a standard volleyball court and purchase sports equipment for the LLC.

The Albrook School students are raising funds to purchase science/STEM materials. The Upper Elementary students are also pledging to raise funds for LLC.

The Upper Elementary students from both Montessori schools have participated in this annual fundraising event for four years (2022-2025). The teachers and students from the two schools are planning to meet via Zoom to organize these events.

Sending Joy and Support From Oklahomans:
PAMBE Ghana’s Global Market Backs La’Angum Learning Center

 
PAMBE Ghana’s Global Market opened on November 1st in a beautiful space donated by the Sherman family of Oklahoma City. This generous family along with volunteers and donors from OKC have embraced the meaning of La’Angum- “Many Hands Make Light Work” and are joining to make the Global Market a reality.
 
Located at 7908 N. Western, the Global Market will be open through December 24th.
 
What can customers expect when entering the doors of PAMBE Ghana’s Global Market? As they walk in, they will see an array of unique fair trade items from around the world. They will no doubt come across something delightful that they haven’t seen before. And, they will be greeted by volunteers who support the mission of PAMBE Ghana.
 
By making a purchase, customers are sending joy and support from Oklahoma to children and their families in a small place far away, because all profits from the Global Market go to support and enhance La’Angum Learning Center. In addition, buying fair trade arts insures that the artisans receive a fair price for their work.
 
PAMBE Ghana began in Oklahoma City in 2008 with the dream of an OCU graduate, Alice Azumi Iddi-Gubbels. Her dream: build a model of quality basic education in an underserved area of northern Ghana. Oklahoma City friends embraced Alice’s vision and began the fair trade Global Market to make her dream come true. The La’Angum Learning Center has flourished through partnerships with local villages in Ghana and her friends and supporters in Oklahoma and Canada.

In Memoriam: PAMBE Ghana Board Member Kathy Carey

With love and gratitude, we remember the many ways in which our friend and Board member Kathy Carey contributed to the mission of La’Angum Learning Center. As school founder Alice Iddi-Gubbels began to realize her dream of a school in her home village of Bumboazio Ghana in 2008, she tapped experienced OKC Montessori teacher Kathy Carey to train local teachers in Montessori education principles for children age 3-6. Kathy traveled to Ghana in 2008 and worked with the Ghanaian teachers, including four who are still teaching at the school. Kathy went on to serve as the first Board president of PAMBE Ghana. The impact of Kathy’s work is coming full circle as one of those initial teachers, Mary Azure, is set to travel to the U.S. next year to take a teacher training course in Montessori education for children age 6-9. We will deeply miss Kathy’s curiosity,  independent spirit and zest for life!
