Mentoring for Future Success

Mentoring for Future Success

Mentoring sessions empower future leaders with the skills and knowledge they need to be successful.  Mentoring shows mentees the art of the possible, takes the limitations off their thinking, and opens their eyes to the exceptional future that could lie ahead of each of them. 

A mentoring session was held on tailoring skills including how to use chalk and draw the outline of the garment on tracing paper and fabric, how to cut the fabric, how to thread the sewing machine, and then how to use the pedal of the sewing machine to finish up the garment.  Learning these basic sewing skills will help the boys mend their own clothes and even go on to make a future career for themselves if they are interested. 

In this video, you can see the mentees learning how to operate a sewing machine, how to outline & cut fabric, and how to sew them into garments.

Your support helped make this mentoring session possible.  Ongoing support is greatly appreciated and will enable more mentoring sessions and educational resources for the future leaders of Sierra Leone.

Families in Sierra Leone face unprecedented challenges due to rising costs. Inflation makes it difficult for them to afford basic food staples such as rice, cooking oil, and onions.

Extending a helping hand can alleviate a significant burden and provide essential relief to the less fortunate.

Give the Gift of Joy This Holiday Season 🎁


You can light up a child's life in Africa this holiday season. Imagine the joy of a young girl opening her very first book or a boy receiving a backpack filled with school supplies to fuel his dreams. For many children, a holiday gift isn't just a moment of happiness – it’s a message of hope, love, and possibility.

At Develop Africa, we believe every child deserves to feel special, especially during the holidays. But for too many children in underserved communities, the season comes and goes without even a small token of celebration. With your help, we can change that.

A donation of just $25 can provide a meaningful gift – a backpack, school supplies, or even a toy – to a needy child. Your generosity will show them that someone far away cares deeply about their future and happiness.

Make this holiday season unforgettable for a child. Please donate now to our Holiday Gift for a Child campaign and be part of a life-changing moment. Together, we can spread joy, ignite hope, and make the holidays magical for children in Africa.
