Imurana Ibrahim, a prominent business figure in Ghana and the founder of the non-governmental organization 'Made By Society,' continues to make waves with his dual commitment to entrepreneurship and philanthropy. Known for his successful business ventures, particularly as the founder of TimeWave, a leading importer of tiles and home remodeling materials, Imrana has made significant strides in the business world at a remarkably young age.

However, what truly sets Imurana apart is his dedication to giving back to his community. Through the success of TimeWave, he has devoted himself selflessly to helping those in need. Imurana's NGO, in collaboration with Yusif Meizongo Jr, a master perfumer and founder of Ghana's NGO 'Home of Humanity,' has been making a tangible impact on the lives of many in the community.

For over three years, Imurana and Yusif have been providing school uniforms, shoes, mathematical sets, and other essential items to pupils, ensuring that they have the tools they need to succeed in their education. Additionally, the two philanthropists have been distributing food to the less fortunate on the streets every month, demonstrating their unwavering commitment to helping those in need.

As part of their corporate social responsibility efforts, Imurana and his collaborators - including Yusif Jnr of Maison Yusif, Sheriff Ayew (Managing Director of Imani Impressionz), Abdul Aziz Ibrahim (Overall Adviser at Maison Yusif), Abdul Rahman Abdul Aziz, and Benjamin Avinu (CEO of Maidoff Consult) - have taken a unique approach to empowering individuals in their community.

Together, they select random street hawkers and provide them with the necessary resources and support to pursue their dream jobs. By offering transportation, equipment, and guidance, Imrana and his team are helping these individuals overcome obstacles and realize their full potential.

Imurana Ibrahim's multifaceted approach to business and philanthropy serves as an inspiring example of how individuals can make a meaningful difference in their communities. Through his dedication to uplifting those around him, Imurana is not only building successful businesses but also creating a lasting impact on the lives of many in Ghana.
