Workforce Empowerment in Sierra Leone

Each month, Develop Africa provides bus fare support to selected students in Sierra Leone. This vocational transportation assistance is a crucial initiative to help students consistently attend college or apprenticeship programs. By easing the burden of transportation costs, the program ensures that students like Musa can focus on their education and pursue their goals without interruption.

Without bus fare support, attending school or apprenticeship programs regularly can become a significant burden for students like Musa, leading to missed classes and academic failure.  In this photo, Musa is at our office - meeting with our program Coordinator, Joseph. 

By providing bus fare support, students can focus on their studies rather than worrying about how they'll get to school each day. This allows them to maximize their learning opportunities and stay committed to their educational and career goals.

We are deeply grateful to donors like you for your generosity and commitment. Your support is making a tangible difference in the lives of students like Musa, empowering them to overcome challenges and pursue their dreams. Thanks to you, they are building brighter futures through education, and we couldn’t do it without your help.

For any inquiries, please reach out to us at GlobalGiving@developafrica.org.

With heartfelt appreciation,
Amy & The Develop Africa Team
