Dear project supporters,

We greatly appreciate your on-going support that continues to bring hope to flood victims in Freetown.   Many families in Sierra Leone were displaced due to the flooding and mudslide disaster that took place in August of 2017.   The Dumbuya family lost everything including their youngest daughter in the flood disaster.    

With your support, we provided the Dumbuya family with a new, safe home and items to go in their home including a wide range of food, cooking items, clothing, school supplies, and scholarships.

This was a tremendous and welcome help to them and the Dumbuya children are all doing well in school this year thanks to the ongoing support they have received.  Thank you again for helping to bring hope and restore normalcy to their lives. 

While recovery will continue to be a long-term process, ongoing support from generous donors like you will help more families, like the Dumbuya family, that were affected by the flood and mudslide disaster.  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.  

 

With great appreciation

Amy & The Develop Africa Team
