Because of Your Support, We are Continuing to Provide Much-Needed Vocational Training - COVID-19

As with many other areas around the world, social distancing and masks have become the new normal in Sierra Leone.  

Adama tells us in her video how she is able to attend the Vocational School thanks to the financial support she received. We also have the opportunity to learn how training is different right now due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Hello, my name is Adama.  I am an attendee at the Tailoring Center.   I decided to come here because of the financial support that I did not receive at my school. 

Because of the Corona Pandemic, we are not able to do the things that we did before.  Not everyone comes to school every day. The schedule is "one in and one out".

We are so thankful that vocational trainees are still getting the training that they need - even now during COVID-19 because of your support. This empowering training is helping them become self-reliant. 

Our recurring donors are truly enabling on-going vocational training  If you haven't had the chance to sign up for a recurring donation yet, we warmly invite you to start a monthly recurring donation here. Even a few dollars a month will go a long way. 

Make a Difference Today: Donate to the Year of the Pencil Campaign

On November 20th, this movement placed over 100,000 pencils into the hands 

of children across Sierra Leone in 20 schools.

Each pencil tells a story — of hope, opportunity, and possibility. 

Education is more than lessons — it’s liberation.

Every $25 helps children write their dreams.
