Our Story

From Alabama to Africaโ€ฆ

Health Resource Partners (HRP) founder, Britany Ferrell, decided to join the United States Peace Corps during her last year of college at the University of Alabama. Shortly after her graduation in June 2010, she learned that she was going to be posted in Ghana, West Africa. Three months later, Britany arrived in the village of Eremon to be a secondary science teacher for the next two years.

The village of Eremon is in the Lawra District in the Upper West Region of Ghana, one of the most remote and inaccessible areas of the country. Britany lived and worked at Eremon Senior High/Technical School, a boarding school for grades 9-12. Living on campus allowed Britany to quickly form relationships with her new colleagues, students, and neighbors and easily immerse herself in Ghanaian culture.

In September 2010 Britany got very ill and soon found out that she was suffering from Malaria. Malaria is an infectious disease transmitted to humans by the bite of a mosquito carrying the Plasmodium parasite. Malaria causes extreme fever, chills, body aches, andโ€”in severe casesโ€”can even lead to death, especially in the very young, the elderly, and individuals who have not previously been exposed.๐Ÿ“ท
