About us

Who we are

A German-Togolese NGO dedicated to children

“Essomé” is a German-Togolese non-governmental organisation for social development cooperation and international solidarity.

Founded in 2022, it works for the development and well-being of Togolese children living in precarious conditions. It is active in education, health and the psychological development of children.

“Essomé” is a word in Ewe, one of the most widely spoken languages in Togo, meaning “future”.

Our vision

The hope of a better future sometimes seems out of reach, like a bird without its wings.

Young people are the future, everywhere in the world. In Togo, many children have enormous potential, but the conditions they grow up in often make it hard for them to flourish.

Giving them the means to grow, to dream, to fulfil themselves and to build their country: that is our vision.
