We asked for your support during the #LittlexLittle to help provide 51 girls in Freetown, Makeni & Bo with school supplies.
You answered and gave!
Your generosity exceeded the goal - raising $2659 (including GlobalGiving's matching funds).
We are truly grateful to each #LittlexLittle donor; thank you!!
LitllexLittle funds covered school supplies for each of the 51 girls, including a book bag, notebooks, pens, pencils, crayons or markers, and other misc supplies (such as rulers and calculators). Your support will also cover other related school expenses such as uniforms, books, classroom supplies, and tuition support.
Two girls you helped in Freetown are Joselyn in the photo above and Esther in the image below. Joselyn is attending the Sierra International Academy and is in class two. Her favorite subject is English, and she dreams of becoming a medical doctor when she grows up. Esther is in Junior Secondary School, and her favorite subject is Mathematics. Esther wants to become a lawyer to fight for justice in her community.
Your support is helping educate girls and young women in Sierra Leone like Joselyn and Esther. We invite you to keep helping change more girls' lives.
A monthly donation is the most effective way to help girls get their education. Every dollar donated makes a difference!

With great appreciation,
