What We Do
From emergency shelter to university degrees, discover the six pillars of care we provide in Sierra Leone.
Selection & Outreach
We prioritize children from underprivileged backgrounds who show great potential. Ebola or extreme poverty left many without parents to fund school or meals. We identify those who need a second chance most.
- Ebola & orphan support
- Grassroots selection in Bo City
- Focus on underprivileged potential
Bo City Purpose-Built Home
Our purpose-built residential shelter in Bo City houses boys and girls in separate, safe, and comfortable quarters. With community support, we plan to expand capacity for more children.
- 15+ full-time residents
- Separate secure quarters
- 24/7 adult caregiver supervision
Formal Education & Tutoring
Education is our primary weapon against poverty. We cover school fees, uniforms, textbooks, and provide daily supplementary tutoring to ensure excellent academic outcomes.
- Full school tuition & fees
- Textbooks & uniform supplies
- After-school tutoring & mentorship
Nutrition & Physical Care
No child goes to bed hungry at Give A Chance. We provide 3 balanced, nutritious meals daily and arrange full medical checkups and treatment whenever necessary.
- 3 daily balanced meals
- Regular health screenings
- Nurturing physical wellbeing
Foster Care & Family Reunion
We provide structured foster care while maintaining the ultimate goal of safely reuniting children with biological relatives when family circumstances stabilize.
- Life skills training
- Emotional support
- Safe family reunion process
University Guidance & Mentorship
We walk with our children all the way through higher education. Graduates, like qualified nurse Janet, return to mentor younger peers, creating a self-sustaining cycle.
- College application support
- Degree & vocational funding
- Alumni mentorship network
