Dear Project Supporters,

Your continued support is greatly appreciated as the COVID-19 pandemic caused the nationwide closure of schools in Sierra Leone.

The students' primary option for continuing school is to receive their lessons via educational radio broadcasts - until schools are able to reopen.

Many students in Freetown do not have radios. Thanks in part to your support over 20 students have received radios so that they could continue their learning at home. Two of the students that received radios are pictured here, Mishael and Esther.

Esther is in class 3 and her favorite subject is math. Mishael is in junior secondary school and enjoys English and religious moral education. He hopes to become a lawyer when he grows up so that he can help his community.

Your support has truly made a difference for Mishael, Esther, and other students in Freetown, Sierra Leone. They are now happily learning from home. Thank you for supporting their education.

We welcome your ongoing support as we continue to provide children in Sierra Leone with the resources they need to be the future leaders of Sierra Leone.

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
