The St George Foundation, Sierra Leone
If you’re born in the poorest country in the world, you’re orphaned by civil war, you’re just a child, and no one helps you
What happens to you?
How would you have survived?
The Problems
Chances are you end up as a street child alone, homeless and very vulnerable.If you’re a boy, you’ll be in a violent street gang and no one wants you.
If you’re a girl, everyone does.
Very soon, your chances of a decent life are just gone....and that’s it, you’re a statistic
Our Solution
St George offers genuine love, targets self esteem, self confidence, self discipline and education. Our children’s lives are literally transformed. It costs just £1/$2 a day per child. From two people choosing to feed some desperate kids in May 2004, St George has now given a home to over 450 children, reunited dozens of families, placed another fifty back in school, and plans to help many many more in 2009http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqP26ilrL74
