Every SDI campaign is shaped with the communities it serves and measured against clear, public goals. We focus on practical solutions that keep working long after the campaign ends, and we report back so you can see exactly what your support achieves.
Across rural communities in Sierra Leone, thousands of children still learn in overcrowded classrooms with limited resources. Together, we can help create safe, inclusive and inspiring learning environments where every child has the opportunity to succeed.
Campaign progress is updated as donations are received and verified.
These are realities communities have shared with us, told with their dignity and ambition front and centre.
Up to 80 children can share a single room built for far fewer.
Many pupils sit on the floor and share one textbook between several.
Some children walk more than an hour each way, every single day.
When resources are scarce, girls are often the first to be kept home.
Without support, many children never finish primary school.
Fatmata is nine. Each morning she walks over an hour to reach a classroom she shares with more than seventy other children. There are not enough desks, so she sits on the floor and copies from a single textbook passed around the room.
“I want to be a nurse, so I can help people in my village.”
Fatmata is bright, determined and full of plans. What she is missing is not effort or ambition. It is a classroom with room to think, materials to learn from, and teachers with the support to teach well. Thousands of children across these communities share her story, and her potential.
