Go Green Day Project

We are hosting an event in Accra, Ghana for St Patrick's DAY (17th March). I would like some support in reaching out to the Ghanaian people, and Irish diaspora or ex-pats and Friends of Ireland and the environment. This event hopes to launch a regular Event/Parade in Accra for marking St Patrick's Day & “Go Green Day”.

Go Green Day Project is not only about celebrating a Saint but some common aspects which St.Patrick's own life and teachings. Go Green day is mainly about respect for the environment we live in. Go Green day is about Environmental Awareness.
