Empowering the Next Generation Through Sports, Education & Mentorship

Welcome to the Joseph Agbeko Foundation (JAF), a visionary initiative founded by Joseph Agbeko, a two-time bantamweight world champion and celebrated Ghanaian professional boxer. Joseph’s illustrious career has inspired his commitment to giving back to the community by mentoring and engaging underserved youth across Ghana.

JAF focuses on empowering individuals through four transformative pillars: Sports, Mental Health, Education, and Mentorship. By integrating the profound life lessons derived from boxing—such as discipline, resilience, and self-confidence—the Foundation aims to shape well-rounded, resilient, and forward-thinking young leaders. Our gyms will serve as both a hub for physical fitness and a sustainable model to support the Foundation’s long-term impact.
