Project SIerra A family and a Future
Project SIerra is a four year partnership between Soroptimist International and Hope and Homes for Children which will transform the lives of some of the most deprived children and women in the world.
Project SIerra: A Family And A Future aims to raise £1 million ($2million USD) to help disadvantaged women and children in Sierra Leone face their futures with confidence.
By strengthening families at risk of breakdown, helping young children living on the streets return home and empowering vulnerable young mothers, Project SIerra will enable more children to grow up in a caring family environment – giving them the opportunity to fulfil their potential.
This is very much OUR Quadrennial Project, launched by two very committed ladies, Anne Macdonald from SI Ellesemere Port and Alison Sutherland from SI London Chilterns. So click on the link, get passionate and get involved!
