Packing for our Ghana trip from January 11-28, 2025 Januar 2025
On Saturday, January 11, we meet at the airport at 5:30 in the morning to fly to Ghana via Istanbul. Not the most comfortable and quickest way, but the best way for us! Each of us can check in 2x23 kg of luggage.
And - this much can be said in advance - we urgently need these kilograms to be able to take all our donations with us to Ghana. As with every trip, we meet 2-3 days before departure to pack our suitcases as well as possible.

3 x 23 kg donations for our partner schools and hospitals
These packaging campaigns are not only about making the best possible use of the space and kilograms available, but also about labeling the donations as such and picking them according to the itinerary. As we visit around 16-18 institutions and facilities in Ghana in the time available to us, there is hardly any time for late allocation of the donations. We therefore label and pack everything in such a way that we can remove it from the luggage as easily as possible. In fact, we have so many donations that each of us only has 12 kg of our own luggage left over. Not a lot - but that has to be enough ! If you're interested in what happens to the donations, we'll be reporting on the trip every day from Sunday, January 12th. Follow the journey at www.hita-ev.org.
