MTN Ghana Foundation has opened nominations for Season 8 of its Heroes of Change initiative, inviting Ghanaians to nominate individuals whose selfless service is creating lasting change in their communities.
Nominations will remain open until 19 October 2026, with individuals eligible for recognition in Education, Health and Economic Empowerment.
Nominations can be submitted through the MTN Ghana website at www.mtn.com.gh or delivered at any MTN Service Centre.
The overall winner will receive GH¢400,000, while winners in each of the three categories will receive GH¢200,000 to support and scale their initiatives.
Nominators of the 10 finalists will also receive rewards, while special prizes will be presented for outstanding contributions in Sustainability and Digital Innovation.
Adwoa Wiafe, Chief Corporate Services and Sustainability Officer of MTN Ghana, said the initiative was established to recognise individuals whose quiet acts of service are transforming lives.
“Heroes of Change celebrates people who serve their communities without seeking recognition or reward. Through Season 8, we want to identify and support more of these remarkable individuals whose work is creating sustainable impact and inspiring others,” she said.
She said this year’s initiative aligned with MTN Ghana’s 30th anniversary and its “Force for Good” philosophy, which uses the company’s resources, partnerships and platforms to create meaningful impact and contribute to national development.
According to MTN Ghana Foundation, Heroes of Change has over the years provided recognition, visibility and financial support to Ghanaians addressing pressing social challenges.
The support has enabled beneficiaries to deepen and expand the impact of their initiatives, while the programme continues to celebrate individuals whose commitment, compassion and service are transforming their communities.
