The ENNY Foundation has received the Paragon of Autism Advocacy and Special Needs Excellence award at the fifth edition of the Eminent Awards, in recognition of its work supporting children with diverse learning needs and promoting inclusive education. The award was presented on October 31, 2026, at the National Theatre in Accra during the awards' fifth anniversary celebration, known as the Quintessence Edition. According to the foundation, the recognition reflects years of work providing intervention and support for children and families, training parents, teachers and caregivers, and promoting more inclusive learning environments. The citation traced the foundation's beginnings to the volunteer work of its founder, Emmanuel Ntow Nyarko, who worked with children requiring additional educational support before establishing ENNY as a platform for intervention, training and advocacy. The foundation provides home- and school-based support to children, with programmes targeting communication, play, attention, social interaction, academic skills and participation in everyday activities.
