This initiative was put together by WolfPack,a youth empowerment organisation,with a dynamic membership consisting of professional young men and women around the world. Their objective is to make considerable positive influences in the sectors that each member represents. 

CHRISTAL BEEKO

 

It’s hard to excel at something you don't love, but find your passion and you'll succeed naturally. Christal Beeko is proof of this. A former popular news anchor on Etv Prime Time News and currently an executive producer and host of the Be Bold Show, this young lady has made it her goal to become a media powerhouse and she's definitely on track. 

 She is socially conscious and her mission through The BE BOLD Show is to contribute to the development of the African continent by focusing on its youth. Aside from inspiring many Africans to return to Africa, the BE BOLD Show engages in several social responsibility events such as the circle railway clean up on Global Hand Washing day, a sickle cell awareness campaign and the most current KBG scholarship fund where students were given the opportunity to compete through essay writing for a one year senior high school scholarship.

AISHA OBUOBI

"Inspiration begets inspiration a million fold...

From dressing up her dolls with the shreds of African print she found at her grandmothers workplace, 

Aisha Obuobi now dresses up the likes of Alicia Keys & Michelle Williams on and off the runway with her award winning label/brand Christie Brown.

Still in her twenties, Aisha is another fine example of a passionate young lady who never

lost sight of her goals and her hard work has undoubtedly put Ghana on the fashion map.

Her work has grazed catwalks all over the world whiles magazines such as The UK Times, Glamour, Vogue Italia,Forbes Afrique and New African Woman to name a few have

recognized and applauded her work. Her brand (Christie Brown) also has a self titled feature on CNN's Inside Africa.

 

AMA K. ABEBRESE

Abebrese is an Award winning Actress, TV Presenter and TV Producer, with a wealth of experience in Film, Television and Media. As a renowned TV presenter, she has interviewed international celebrities such as Harrison Ford, Neyo, Ziggy Marley, Akon, Rihanna, Quentin Tarantino, Idris Elba and Star Wars director George Lucas.

PATRICIA MAWULI

"Patricia is dedicated to providing opportunities for young rural women who have ability, determination and character, but often lack the resources to step out and step up. Patricia makes it clear that she has had to work hard, very hard, to get to where she is - and she has not stopped - she has plans to fly one of the planes she has built to Germany!

Patricia started with nothing but her own dreams and ambitions. With no money to invest, she invested her hard work, sweat, tears and perseverance. That self-investment has paid off. As she says 'I have discovered that the difference between success and failure is hard work and determination' - and she should know - for she has broken the mold and set a trail in the sky for other young women to follow towards their individual successes."

AGNES NTOW

"**Your country needs you**

With this mindset this young lady left everything she knew behind and came back to Ghana.
After 20 years in the states, when she graduated Loyola University with a BA in Communications a gut instinct made her go against the advice of family and friends
And she eventually made the bold move back home. With much fewer job prospects and very little work experience she was still determined to build the life that she wanted for herself right here in Ghana. All she knew was she had a passion for media and was an excellent orator.

Agnes is a strong advocate against the brain drain that is robbing our nation of its gifted people. "Why are we helping them maintain their perfect structures when our own home is not even built yet?
