The vision of this foundation was conceived by it's Founder and icon Mohammed Rashid with the iconic name Captin Jumbo in March 2016 but was not implemented until July, 2020 when it was registered. In the implementation, the organization started as Captin Jumbo Production with the sole aim of putting smiles on kid's faces everywhere in the country, even in a learning environment.
So during its inception, KG and Nursery pupils of Susan Owusu Memorial Methodist International School, where he was an ICT teacher, were entertained intermittently as they learn and on their snack and lunch breaks with songs and slogans put together by the founder. With a few crews assembled, soon this was extended to other schools in the vicinity who accepted invitation to be part of the Captin Jumbo family. At the foundation’s inception Schools like Redeemer Academy, Louis Rainbow and Divine Prosperity had visits by the Captin Jumbo Production Team on vacation days (our days). In total, about 300 schools have had such visits from the production.
In collaboration with Bozz Sikaman Progtogha foundation and with authorities such as the Ghana Police Service, Red Cross, Ghana Health Service, National Commission on Civic Education, Food and Drugs Authority, Litter Free Ghana, National Youth Authority, Ghana Education Service, the production had organized the ``No School Dropout Campaign float``(2nd November,2018) and participated in a number of such related programs like the Independence Day March (6th March,2016), Republic Day March( 1st July 2018) amongst others, where we gave presentations on the need to inspire and motivate kids to value Education both formal and informal under the ``No School Dropout Campaign``.
From experience, we realized that the needs of children were far reaching than a brief moment of entertainment or appeals to parents and authorities to do the best for their children. Hence the birth of Captin Jumbo Global Kids Foundation International (a change from Captin Jumbo Production) to address these many challenges. The foundation now has two branches. In Ghana, the Foundation was incorporated on August 20, 2020 and in the United States of America on 5th November, 2020 Ultimately, we at the Captin Jumbo global kids Foundation will like to contribute to the building of a society where Children's Protection, Education, Rights, and Health is held in high esteem and to raise Patriotic future citizens.
