Your ongoing support has helped multiple vocational trainees at the Baptist Women’s Vocational Training Center.  There are currently 50 trainees at the Center and each student is working hard to create a better future for themselves and their families.

Malaria is one of the leading causes of child death in Africa. Bed nets are one of the main prevention measures that are used to combat malaria; because they have been treated with safe, residual insecticide that is used to block, kill and repel mosquitoes. Thanks in part to your support, life-saving bed nets are continuing to be distributed in Sierra Leone. 

Thanks in part to your support 30 students received school supplies at the UMC Primary School George Brook Dwarzark.  You can see photos in the album here.

We greatly appreciate your continued support that enables more families to receive the bed nets they need to protect themselves from Malaria. The long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) provide an effective barrier and protection from mosquito bites. By providing these bed nets to families we are truly saving lives...YOU are saving lives!

Thanks in part to your ongoing support, the staff and students were able to move into their new school building in January. A week prior to the opening of the new building, the principal, teachers and other staff members transported and unpacked supplies at the school.  It was a time of sheer excitement for all involved.  During the first week of classes at the new school, the pupils drew their favorite pictures on the classroom walls as seen in the photo album

We greatly appreciate your support that provided students in Sierra Leone with a new solar light, making studying at night possible. These solar lights are providing safe, renewable, and environmentally friendly lighting and they eliminate the unsafe and hazardous Kerosene lanterns that have caused fires, damage, and even deaths.

Thank you for your continued support that has helped provide solar lights to students with no electricity.   Most of these students had to rely on dangerous kerosene lamps to study at night, but now have a safe and reliable source of light through solar powered lights.  The students were each very appreciative to receive a solar light. 

We are excited to share that thanks in part to your generous support we shipped out 20 drums full of school supplies to Cameroon this week.

Thanks to your support, several students are receiving the vital computer training that they need. This training, along with the new skills they are acquiring, will open the door to new opportunities.

Thanks to your support, more students in Nigeria are getting the opportunity to get the education they need.  You are helping build successful future leaders.  One of the future leaders that you have helped is John.  John is from a very large family who did not have the financial ability to send him to college. 

Through our partner organization in Nigeria, S.M.I.L.E, we are supporting a student called John. John tells us in his own words how he was able to attend college thanks to the financial support he received.
