Your ongoing support has helped multiple vocational trainees at the Baptist Women’s Vocational Training Center.  There are currently 22 trainees at the Center and each student is working hard to create a better future for them and their families. 

We greatly appreciate your support that is empowering small businesses. Our microfinance or microcredit loans give individuals a helping hand to start their businesses or to help them grow their existing businesses.  Aminata is one of the small business owners that recently received a microfinance loan and she is also a mudslide survivor.

In her video, she expresses her appreciation saying

We are thankful for the support we received and were able to distribute solar lights to students. Hawa and Ketura pictured here are the two students that received solar lights thanks to your donations.

We greatly appreciate your support that helped a group of young ladies receive training on sexual health from a health worker. Many adolescent girls become pregnant because they lack the information needed to make informed decisions about their sexuality, family planning, and reproductive health and the training they received gave the young ladies the tools they need to make important and educated decisions. 

Thanks to your ongoing support we recently provided 30-bed nets to families in Sierra Leone that were directly impacted by the flood and mudslide disaster in 2017.   The long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) they received are keeping the mosquitos away at night while they sleep.  The nets have been treated with safe, residual insecticide that blocks, kills and repels mosquitoes. Pictured here is Isata receiving her new bed net.  

We greatly appreciate your continued support of computer skills training in Sierra Leone.  One of the current students, Umu shows us how she has learned to use Microsoft Word in this video and tells us how the Computer Training Center has impacted her life:

We greatly appreciate your support, which is helping bring light to students who have no electricity.  15 students received solar lights from Bethel Primary School Pentagon, including Alhaji pictured here.  The students from Bethel Primary School Pentagon were directly impacted by the heavy floods in Aug 2017.  

We greatly appreciate your support, which is helping young ladies get their education.  Balu and Sara, who are former students of Creating Pathways Centre,  are both now enrolled in a Business Studies Program at the National Centre for Vocational Studies. Both Sara and Balu expressed their deep gratitude to the GlobalGiving donors for the educational support they received. 

Your support is continuing to help the many families in Sierra Leone that were displaced due to the flooding and mudslide disaster that took place on August 14, 2017.  You are continuing to bring hope to flood victims in Freetown.  You helped Mariatu with a microfinance loan so that she could restart her business that had been destroyed by the Flood.

Mariatu expresses her gratitude for the loan in this video saying-
