Yachting Giving Back and Real Impact in Ghana | Rich AF

Yachting has no shortage of money, but far fewer examples of it being used to create something tangible outside the industry.

In this episode of Rich AF, Charl Minnaar (The Yachting Investor) sits down with Thomas Hearn, Co-Founder and Chairman of Home Ghana, to talk through how a short volunteer trip turned into building schools, supporting education, and creating long-term opportunities in Ghana.

What makes this conversation worth attention is the execution. There was no large organisation behind it, no external structure doing the heavy lifting. They stayed, used what they had, and gradually built something that now continues to grow with support from within the yachting network, particularly yacht crew.

The discussion also touches on trust and transparency in charitable work, and why Home Ghana has structured itself to ensure people can clearly see where funding goes and how it is used.

From there, the focus moves to the vocational skill centre they are developing, designed to provide practical, income-generating skills and create a path toward long-term independence rather than short-term support.
