The Coronavirus AKA COVID-19 is disrupting lives and businesses globally.   The businesses in Sierra Leone are no exception. 

With COVID-19 pandemic taking the focus of all of our attention, your ongoing support is currently supporting local tailors like Josie, pictured here, with the funds needed to purchase all the materials needed to sew face masks. Protective masks stop the spread of the COVID-19 Coronavirus from person to person.

As we all know, regular hand washing is essential to help prevent the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus. 

Many communities, however, do not have the needed resources to enable this. 

With this in mind and thanks to your support, we provided 3 veronica buckets and liquid soap to the Girl Pikin for Betteh Girl’s Club at Ghana compound, Beach Road, Freetown. The compound houses over 500 people. These buckets are in great demand and will be very useful.

April 22 is Earth Day.  The 13th Sustainable Development Goal is to take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts.  In Sierra Leone, the serious and accelerating rate of deforestation is not only threatening biodiversity and ecosystem balance in the country but is also contributing to global climate change. In Freetown, the run-off water from the surrounding hills results in flooding and loss of property each year.

Your ongoing support is helping reverse deforestation in Freetown, Sierra Leone.  The photo below was taken just this morning on Bathurst Highway.  The photo here was taken in June of 2018 when the seedlings were planted. 

Based on the two photos you can see the great improvement in the growth of the trees. 

Your on-going support is greatly appreciated and continues to bring hope and normalcy to flood victims in Freetown.   Many families in Sierra Leone were displaced due to the flooding and mudslide disaster that took place in August of 2017, including the Dumbuya family who lost everything in the flood.  

We are excited that the seedlings planted over the summer are continuing to grow.  These seedlings while still not very big, are the start of reforestation, which is crucial in Sierra Leone.  Your ongoing support is helping reverse deforestation in Freetown, Sierra Leone.

We greatly appreciate your on-going support that continues to bring hope to flood victims in Freetown.   Many families in Sierra Leone were displaced due to the flooding and mudslide disaster that took place in August of 2017.   The Dumbuya family lost everything including their youngest daughter in the flood disaster.    

With your support, we provided the Dumbuya family with a new, safe home and items to go in their home including a wide range of food, cooking items, clothing, school supplies, and scholarships. 

In Sierra Leone, there is deforestation taking place across the country making the community prone to disasters.  Heavy rain has led to several unfortunate mudslides in the country.   

Your on-going support is greatly appreciated and continues to bring support to flood victims in Freetown.   Many families in Sierra Leone were displaced due to the flooding and mudslide disaster that took place in August of 2017.   Your support helped 35 students receive six months of computer training including Microsoft Office- Word, Excel, Publisher, and PowerPoint. Proficiency in computers is necessary for success in today's technology-driven society and the 35 students that received computer training are very thankful to YOU.
