Sylvester Visits Success Tall Academy in Freetown

By Amy M Baty-Herbert | Project Coordinator

Success Tall Academy Welcomes Sylvester

Dear Project Supporters,

In June 2019, Sylvester Renner, President of Develop Africa, had the opportunity to visit the Success Tall Academy Nursery and Preparatory School in Freetown, Sierra Leone. The school is located at the Western part of Freetown, off Old School, Hill Station - Hill Top. The community is a deprived one. The school was opened to help in nation-building by providing a learning environment for deprived kids.

99 kids with eager-to-learn looks on their faces welcomed Sylvester. Develop Africa is thankful for your support that is assisting Success Tall Academy with school supplies and scholarships since the 2016-17 school year. YOU are making a difference.

The headteacher of the school expressed his gratitude during Sylvester’s visit in this video-

My name is Lahai Turay. I am the headteacher for Success Tall Academy and Nursery Preparatory School. Actually, this school has been in existence from 2016 to 2019. It's taken three years now, close to four years, but as a school, we have come to know Develop Africa. Back when we started in 2016 you know is when they actually started to help our school with materials. You know like books and pencils, bags and a lot more.

Indeed, Develop Africa has played a significant role in the life of our pupils.

We welcome your ongoing support as we continue to provide children at Success Tall Academy and other future leaders in Sierra Leone with the resources they need. We encourage you to start a monthly recurring donation here. 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.

Warm regards,

Amy and the Develop Africa team
