Dear project supporters
April 27 was the 50th Anniversary of Sierra Leone's Independence. To celebrate the day, the ladies were challenged to create different designs in PowerPoint commemorating the day.
The ladies enjoyed the exercise and - as you can see from the photos they expressed their creativity and had fun in the process. The colorful slides reflected the colors of the national flag of Sierra Leone - green, white and blue.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office and PowerPoint are top in-demand job skills according to research. This is relevant not just in the US, but also in Sierra Leone. Consequently, it is no surprise that the training that we are offering is in demand and highly appreciated. Together we are helping to provide the needed skills for success in today's society.
Your support helps to cover staff salaries and lab running costs so we can continue to offer this in-demand job skills training to deserving youths.
Save The Date - Matching Donation Opportunity: On Wednesday, July 12 donations will be matched a 50%, from 9:00 am EDT, with $110,000 in matching funds available. We appreciate your on-going assistance as we empower youths and raise a savvy, equipped generation
With deep appreciation
The Develop Africa Team
