International Literacy Day: Investing in the Education of Sierra Leone's Children

By Amy Baty-Herbert | Project Leader

Emmanuel ready for the new school year

On September 8th, we celebrate International Literacy Day, which serves as a powerful reminder of literacy’s essential role in promoting human dignity, human rights, and sustainable development. 

Investing in literacy and education is one of the most impactful ways we can foster the growth and development of children. Your contributions ensure that children, like Emmanuel, in Sierra Leone have access to quality education, equipping them with the skills to become the future leaders their communities need.

Emmanuel is a dedicated junior secondary school student who excels in mathematics and dreams of becoming a doctor. In his free time, he enjoys playing football. Your support has been instrumental in keeping him in school, allowing him to pursue his dreams and work toward a brighter future.

We are deeply grateful for your commitment to education and literacy in Sierra Leone.  The most effective way to continue supporting future leaders, like Emmanuel, is through a monthly donation, though every contribution, no matter the size, moves us closer to our goals.

If you have any questions or need more information, feel free to reach out to us at GlobalGiving@developafrica.org.

Warm regards,
Amy and the Develop Africa Team
