1 in 6 Children Live in Extreme Poverty

According to UNICEF, 1 in 6 children live in Extreme Poverty and of that number, two-thirds live in sub-Saharan Africa.  Unfortunately, those statistics are expected to get worse due to the pandemic.  However, your generous ongoing donations are supporting children in Sierra Leone and helping make getting an education possible with school support, books and school supplies, bed nets, solar lights, and more.

You Helped Bring School Support to Bo

Your ongoing support is greatly appreciated as it continues to make an impact on the future leaders in Sierra Leone.  School supplies and financial support was provided to students in Bo, which is located in the southern part of Sierra Leone. Access to water and electricity is a challenge to residents in Bo. The major occupation for residents is mostly farming and trading. The students and parents were very thankful for the support they received.

The students expressed their thanks saying-
