Drawing Futures: The Simple Power of a Pencil

By Amy Baty-Herbert | Project Leader

Pencils distributed at Pentecostal Primary School
Pencils distributed at Pentecostal Primary School

Thanks in part to your generous support, students in Sierra Leone are receiving essential school supplies that are empowering them to succeed in their education and shaping them into future leaders within their communities.

Recently, the students at Pentecostal Primary School in Freetown each received something as simple, yet as powerful, as a pencil. To many, a pencil might seem small, but to these young learners, it represents opportunity—an opportunity to write, learn, and create a brighter future for themselves. These pencils are helping open the doors to knowledge, creativity, and personal growth.

The joy and gratitude expressed by the students was truly heartwarming.  By providing these students with the tools they need to succeed, you are helping to equip the next generation of leaders in Sierra Leone. 

If you haven't had the chance to sign up for a recurring donation yet, we warmly invite you to continue supporting the future leaders of Sierra Leone.

If you have any questions or would like to learn more, please don’t hesitate to email us at GlobalGiving@developafrica.org.

With great appreciation,
Amy and the Develop Africa Team
