Hawa is a student financially supported by Unsilenced Voices in Sierra Leone. When we first met her, she was involved in unfavorable circumstaces, pregnant, and alone. We enrolled her in the Bo Women's Vocational Training Centre where she has been able to learn a skill and sell the items she makes with her hands instead of selling her body. Below are pictures of her new dress. What could be more transforming and life changing than giving abused and neglected young girls the skills and power to earn for themselves?
Unsilenced Voices has been growing since 2017. We recently purchased an office space with an area to temporarily house victims of abuse in the near future. We currently serve roughly 15 girls in school, and aproximately 200-300 people per month in the villages and markets.
