Educate the Future Leaders of Sierra Leone

We are thrilled to share the positive impact your support has had on Alusine's educational journey.

Thanks to your generosity, Alusine received essential educational support covering tuition fees and school supplies. His favorite subject in junior secondary school is English, and he dreams of becoming a doctor in the future. Alusine wanted to express his gratitude and extend warm holiday wishes to you in this video message:

"Hello Develop Africa donors, I thank you for your great support through school material and tuition fees. I have just finished my first term examinations and am now going to enjoy my holiday. I wish you happy holidays and new year to come. Thank you!"

Your investment in the education of students like Alusine not only empowers them but also acts as a catalyst for breaking the cycle of poverty within their communities. Your kindness has made a significant difference in the lives of young people across Sierra Leone.

As we approach the holiday season, we extend warm wishes from Alusine and the entire Develop Africa team. Your continued support ensures that future leaders in Sierra Leone have access to education. If you haven't already, we invite you to consider setting up a recurring donation today. Not only does it sustain our efforts, but GlobalGiving will also match new recurring donations up to $200 USD at 100%*.

A parent named Ibarray from Kamawornie Village has conveyed her appreciation to Develop Africa for the supplementary classes organized for the children, including her daughter Marie, after regular school hours. It's important to note that these afterschool classes come at no expense to the families, thanks to the generosity of donors like you.

Ibarray said in this video, "My name is Ibarray, born of Kamawonie, I am the mother of Marie. We thank you all for tutoring our children after class. When they arrive at home from school, they sit down together with books, reading, and writing.  We are very happy; we thank you all for that." 

The additional classes have had a positive impact on the lives of the beneficiaries in Kamawornie Village.  In some cases, students may feel hesitant to speak up during regular school hours, but the extra classes provide a conducive environment for open and honest interaction between students and their instructors. This platform allows students to discuss various issues, including those affecting them at home.

The support from Develop Africa and donors like you has truly made a meaningful difference in the educational journey of these students.

If you haven't had the chance to sign up for a recurring donation yet, we warmly welcome your ongoing support for the future leaders of Sierra Leone.
