About Elsollasor

Plan Smart, Live Better

Elsollasor

Our Story

Elsollasor was founded in 2017 by Dr. Kwame Nkrumah after witnessing the financial struggles faced by many Ghanaians despite their hard work and determination. Having spent years researching financial behavior and economic development, Dr. Nkrumah realized that financial education in Ghana often focused on abstract concepts rather than practical, culturally relevant strategies.

What began as small community workshops in Kumasi has now grown into a comprehensive financial education platform serving students and working adults across Ghana and beyond. Our name, "Elsollasor," combines elements of various Ghanaian languages to represent our core philosophy: the sun (El) rises (sor) for all who prepare for it through discipline and planning (la).

Our Mission

At Elsollasor, our mission is to transform financial futures by equipping individuals with practical knowledge, effective tools, and supportive community. We believe financial empowerment comes not just from understanding concepts but from developing lasting habits and disciplined approaches to money management.

Our Approach

Our courses are designed around three core principles:

  • Cultural Relevance: We create financial education that addresses the specific challenges and opportunities within the Ghanaian and broader African economic context.
  • Practical Application: Every concept we teach comes with specific implementation tools and exercises that bridge the gap between knowledge and action.
  • Community Support: We believe lasting financial change happens best within supportive communities, which is why all our courses include accountability partnerships and group learning opportunities.

Our Values

Trust

We provide reliable, evidence-based financial education that respects our students' intelligence and time.

Excellence

We continuously refine our teaching methods and course materials to deliver the highest quality financial education.

Inclusion

Our courses are designed to be accessible to people from all educational backgrounds and economic levels.

Impact

We measure our success by the real financial improvements our students achieve, not just by course completion rates.
