About Gold Fields Foundation
In 2002, Gold Fields Ghana established the Community Development Fund to help finance development initiatives, projects and programmes in the host communities of the Tarkwa and Damang mines.
In 2004, the fund was officially registered as the Gold Fields Ghana Foundation.
The Foundation has a formalised governance structure and funding mechanism. It is the first foundation to be set up by a mining company in Ghana.
The Foundation focuses on five key areas, namely: education, health, water and sanitation, agriculture and infrastructure.
