This #GivingTuesday our New School and Agricultural Building Campaign will help us finish building a permanent school for 86 children who have never had access to education in rural Sierra Leone.
The new building will serve as a multi-purpose educational and community hub for SHARP operations in the rural area, providing essential resources and services to the local population. Its primary focus will be on the following:
Classrooms for Children’s Education
The building will house 9 classrooms that will accommodate 360 students, offering a safe and stable environment for learning. This will provide long-term access to quality education for children in the community.
Agricultural Training Center
A dedicated space for local farmers to receive training, tools, and seeds to improve their farming practices and boost productivity. This will ensure sustainable livelihoods and food security.
ICT Room
The building will include an Information & Communication Technology (ICT) room, equipping students and community members with digital skills necessary for modern education and job opportunities.
Overall, the building will not only provide a permanent home for SHARP’s educational programs but will also act as a community resource that enhances agricultural training and technological empowerment for generations to come.
With the funds we have already raised, building supplies have been purchased and are being delivered!! The village residents are grateful for this opportunity, and are volunteering their time and skills. This keeps construction costs down.
Will you join us in our goal of raising $18k for children who’ve never had access to education before?

We’ve already completed the foundation and backfilling. Our next steps are to raise the walls and add the roof. Thank you for your continued support!
