Albert Schiemann
It was an honor to work with Anna over the years, who is such an exceptional and kind CEO and practices great leadership, but also has the capacity to fulfill a tremendous workload every day with great care. It’s because of her willingness to continuously learn new trades, her welcomeness to change, and her thinking outside the box, that Aminu Initiative grew to an international organization — giving children access to education over 3,000 miles away — always hand in hand with the partner organization Cin Gaban Nima, always open-minded, always with respect and in consideration with their cultures and traditions. Everything Anna does comes from the heart. That’s the true magic behind the successes of this organization, and I can’t wait to see the next chapter!

We meet many people every day, but only some leave the marks, and one of them is Anna Zaaki. She is a motivated, hard-working, and intelligent CEO who has great expertise in her area. A broad-minded human being, who welcomes change and motivates to do better every day. Her exceptional set of skills, ingenuity, and integrity made working for Aminu Initiative a dream. Anna leads by example, and many people in the workplace and beyond find her enthusiasm and dedication, both inspiring and motivating. In the last two years, I saw Aminu Initiative grow from a national organization to an international one. That is thanks to Anna who not only managed to bring excellent supporters on board but also gathered a great team of like-minded, dedicated people around her to propel the organization forward. I’m looking forward to seeing what great successes they will accomplish in the future!

Jan 2006 - Present
My husband Amin Zaaki and I together with family and friends founded the Aminu Initiative in January 2006. Our mission is to empower underprivileged children in Ghana through education. Nima, one of the poorest ghettos of Ghana's capital Accra, is were my husband was born and raised. And this is were the story of our Aminu Initiative all started. Futher more we promote intercultural exchange and international partnerships. Since 2009 we are sending young volunteers to work in our educational programs in Ghana. And since 2015 we are a zertified weltwärts sending organisation. The development volunteer service weltwärts was founded in 2008 by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). Show less
