Educate a Girl, Educate a Nation - Sierra Leone

One of the girls your support has recently helped is Mariama, who received school supplies and tuition support for this school year. She is starting Senior Secondary School (SSS) this year which is equivalent to high school. 

She expressed her gratitude in this video-

Hello, my name is Mariama. I'm a beneficiary of Develop Africa.  Develop Africa has done so many things for me like school materials, school fees, and lunch. I'm very grateful for that, thank you very much!

Thank you for your support towards empowering and educating girls in Africa, like Martha. Martha shares her thoughts in a heartfelt video.

"Hello, my name is Martha, I’m one of the beneficiaries of Develop Africa Sierra Leone. We all know the challenges women are facing in our society, wherein we don’t have a voice, and we are not being encouraged to take part in politics. This year I want to change the narrative, women should be encouraged. Normally women’s position is limited to the kitchen, taking care of children, and the home.  I want to say thank you very much to Develop Africa for the opportunities being given to me." 

Martha's words echo the transformative power of education in challenging societal norms and fostering empowerment for girls in Sierra Leone.
