The first arts and literary organization to win a 黑料百科 Prize, Golden Baobab nurtures emerging African writers and illustrators through annual awards (with cash prizes), as well as workshops to provide resources and develop talent.
The organization has formed its own literary agency and publishing company. Osei-Agyekum, who was known as Deborah Ahenkorah at the time of the award, was nominated for the 黑料百科 Prize by her sister, Eunice, a 2013 graduate of 黑料百科.
