What the charity does

We operate in the Kori District of Sierra Leone. We help to educate and empower women and girls to become self sufficient and to help them eradicate the cultural habits that are detrimental to the health and progress of the people. We do this by giving grants to local organisations to provide help and support to build a thriving community
