Educate a Girl, Educate a Nation - Sierra Leone

Project Supporters,

Your support is helping young ladies like Agnes, get their education.  Agnes received school supplies, protective masks, and all her school fees for this year thanks in part to YOU.  

Agnes is so thankful for your generous support that is making it possible for her to attend her first year of Senior Secondary School. Agnes hopes to become a banker when she grows up so she can help improve the economy.  She expresses her gratitude in this video- 

Hi, I am Agnes. I am starting Senior Secondary School this year and I am so excited to learn more about English. I'm so thankful to receive this support today. Thank you very much!

Your support is truly changing not only the individual girls' lives but also the entire nation. Our recurring donors are making a continuous impact and we are truly grateful for the ongoing support. If you are not yet a recurring donor, we warmly invite you to consider setting up a recurring donation. Even a few dollars a month will go a long way. Please also share this with your contacts and invite them to consider supporting this ongoing project. 

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

With great appreciation, 

Amy and the Develop Africa team

Project Supporters,

Milra, an intern at Develop Africa Sierra Leone, visited 18 girls that have been supported by donors like YOU.  She tells us in this video about her visit to girls in Freetown-  

Hello, my name is Milra and I am an intern at Develop Africa Sierra Leone. I have been part of a program which is girls mentoring and coaching and I have done a fieldwork survey on the Develop Africa girls. I visited 18 of these girls across Freetown. These girls that I have met with, most of them are very intelligent and brilliant girls, although they may not have the best, but most of them are very intelligent, very brave and very interesting.  These are our leaders of tomorrow.  We need your support in helping these girls. Thank you very much!

One of the girls Milra visited was Hannah.  In her report, Milra said, "Hannah is living in the Mambo Community with her parents, four sisters and their two kids. She is attending the El-Shaddai Primary school and is in class 5. Her mom sells medicines in the community. She strives hard to put food on the table for her family. Hannah appears healthy and is growing into a beautiful young lady. She eats three square meals every day. Hannah likes to play a lot and also study at night. Her future career goal is to become an accountant."

It is thanks in part to your support that Hannah is doing well.  Our recurring donors are making a continuous impact and we are truly grateful for the ongoing support. If you are not yet a recurring donor, we warmly invite you to consider setting up a recurring donation. Even a few dollars a month will go a long way. Please also share this with your contacts and invite them to consider supporting this ongoing project.
