Your continued support is greatly appreciated as the students in Freetown, Sierra Leone just started back to school this past month.    One of the students that directly benefited from your generous support is Nathaniel.   

The new school year has begun and students who would not have been able to afford school on their own were able to go to school thanks to you.  Your generous ongoing support is greatly appreciated!   The school set up new goals for the 2019-2020 school year based on information gathered from the 2018-2019 school year.

Many children and youths in Sierra Leone have no access to computers or computer learning opportunities due to financial limitations. Your continued support is greatly appreciated as more students are able to get the computer training they need to be successful in today's technology-driven society.   You can see the full album of the current computer training students.

Thank you for your continued support that is making an impact for Autism therapy in Senegal.  Below is from the Dakar Team about their activities over the summer and now in the 2019/2020 school year. 

Hello to all,

We are so thankful for your continued support that is helping future leaders have the ability to study at night.  Lack of electricity is a challenge for many communities across Sierra Leone and school students living in those communities find it very challenging to read their notes and do their assignments at night.  Thanks to your support these students are receiving solar-powered lights like Bintu who was delighted to receive a solar light.

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.   

Good health and well-being is the third Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) and one of the focuses within that SDG is preventing Malaria.  Long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) that are being provided to families in Freetown are an effective ongoing source of protection to prevent Malaria by protecting families while they sleep at night.    We appreciate your support that has provided long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) to families and individuals, like Mary and Fatmata, in Freetown. 

Your support helped ship much-needed supplies to future leaders in Freetown, Sierra Leone this past month.  Many families in Sierra Leone live far below the poverty line and sending children to school is very challenging.  By providing school books and school supplies to these families it reduces the school-related costs making school possible for the children in Sierra Leone.

Your support is continuing to help student, Ifeoluwa, in Nigeria get his education through our partner organization, S.M.I.L.E.   Ifeoluwa is now in his second year of college thanks to your continued support.

He expressed how much it meant to him to receive scholarship funds for his second year saying that his financial anxiety was high before receiving your support because scholarships are not guaranteed.  In his update he said-

We deeply appreciate your support for the Kissinger School in Ghana.  The students at the Kissinger School have just started their new school year and they were very thankful for the school supplies they received.
