You are Empowering Mariatu

Good afternoon, my name is Mariatu. I am attending the Baptist Tailoring school. Well, I was attending school, but I had to drop out due to a lack of financial support. I started attending tailoring classes here about three months ago and I have learned basic sewing tips. I intend to use the knowledge I am acquiring here to establish my own tailoring shop so that I can support myself and other people. 

Our recurring donors are truly enabling ongoing 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.
