Your support is helping future leaders, like Ibrahim, who received a kindle and solar light to help him with his school work. Ibrahim is in SSS3 (Senior Secondary School third year), enjoys Integrated Science and Economics, and hopes to become an Economist.
Ibrahim is very thankful for the solar light, which is also a charger because he has no electricity in his home. He is also thankful for the kindle, he has received to help him research and do his school work. In this video he says-
Hello, my name is Ibrahim, a beneficiary of Develop Africa. Today I am very much excited, I have just received a solar light to charge my kindle and my phone, and also use it to study at night.
I want to say a very big thank you.

Thanks to your generous support, future leaders are receiving not only school supplies and school support but are also receiving food to help with their needs. Families, like Gibril’s, received extra support in the form of a bag of rice, one gallon of cooking oil, and onions.
Gibril's family was very thankful for the extra support that is helping Gibril have healthy meals so he can focus his attention on studying and not hunger.
Gibril is currently in class four where his favorite subject is Social Studies. In his spare time, he enjoys playing football with his friends. Gibril dreams of becoming an officer in the Sierra Leone army because he wants to serve his country and save lives and properties
We greatly appreciate your ongoing support for future leaders in Sierra Leone, like Gibril.

Students from elementary school through high school will receive much-needed supplies including- pencils, pens, paper, notebooks, book bags, rulers, erasers, pencil sharpeners, crayons, glue, and more. The drums also include calculators, solar lights, and kindles/e readers/iPads. Teaching and classroom supplies are also included for teachers such as chalk, teaching materials, and books.

We greatly appreciate your ongoing educational support for students in Sierra Leone. The hardware & networking students recently had a practical. Prior to the practical, they had been practicing how to install an operating system on a virtual machine. For the practical, the students were set up in teams and had to open the system units and remove the faulty hard drive and the old CMOS battery and then replace both with newer units that were purchased thanks in part to generous donors like you. They also did a RAM upgrade and successfully installed a Windows 7 operating system, Microsoft Office, Chrome, Media player, etc.
You can see the students taking the practical in this album
The teams all successfully accomplished the practical and they can now set up a desktop computer, troubleshoot basic hardware problems, identify various hardware parts, major software, and its functions, and connect the right cables to the different components.
Your support is equipping students in Sierra Leone through education and skills training to be future leaders. Our recurring donors are making a continuous impact and we are truly grateful for the ongoing support. If you are not yet a recurring donor, we warmly invite you to consider setting up a recurring donation.
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.
