Educate a Girl, Educate a Nation - Sierra Leone

Thank you for your support towards empowering and educating girls in Africa with girls' mentoring sessions.  Mentoring helps girls go through challenging life transitions, including dealing with stressful changes at home, critical decision-making, problem-solving, and transitioning to adulthood. 

Finda & Mariama talk about what they learned at a girls' mentoring session on peer pressure in this video.

Hello, my name is Finda. I've been part of the girls' mentoring sessions and today's topic was peer pressure. I learned how to overcome peer pressure. You have to think before you take any action. Thank you very much!

Hello, I'm Mariama and today's mentoring session was great and it was about peer pressure. I learned how to overcome peer pressure.  It was exciting, thank you very much.

We sent out an appeal at the end of the year about mentoring sessions in 2023.  We invite you to consider supporting this year's mentoring sessions. Every dollar donated makes a difference! 

If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at GlobalGiving@developafrica.org.

 
With great appreciation,

Amy & the Develop Africa Team

Happy New Year! We are truly grateful for the #YearEnd support we received!!

We asked for your help to send Mariama to college and your support made it possible for Mariama to start college this semester.

Mariama made this video of gratitude to you saying

Thank you very much for the support you have given me this past year.  You helped to pay my first-year tuition fees at the University. You’ve really helped me a lot and I’m very grateful.  Thank you very much! 

Your support is helping educate girls and young women in Sierra Leone, like Mariama. We invite you to keep helping change more girls' lives. Making a monthly donation is the most effective way to help girls get their education, but every dollar donated makes a difference.
