Hope Direct

Organization Description: 

Who we are
Hope Direct is a registered charity set up to respond to the needs of the poor in Sierra Leone and other developing nations. Sierra Leone suffered from a civil war which lasted for 11 years from 1991 and ended in 2002. As a result of this war many of its population now suffers from poverty, hunger, some are still internally displaced and lack basic human rights. Sierra Leone is ranked as the poorest nation in the world by UN development index and highly depends on international aid. Many children were used as child soldiers during the civil conflict. Some children still beg for money on behalf of their families instead of attending schools.

What we do?

The Redeem project recently set up at 2B Heald Place, Rusholme, Manchester aims to empower Asylum seekers and Refugees to participate in the community of Greater Manchester by using their skills in volunteering to recycle, meaningful occupation like diy, and gardening.

Overseas Projects
Hope Direct aims to resettle families (who are still internally displaced and are afraid to go back into their lands because they?ve lost everything during the war) by:

? 1. Empowering them to be self reliant through farming, providing them with seeds, tools, and training.

? Micro credit schemes to set up their own business.

? Sponsoring war affected children to go back to school instead of being used as bread winners.

? Providing safe drinking water by digging community water wells.

? Training ands supporting community health workers to reach villages that do not vehicle access

Please contact us if you have tools, tractor, clothing, bikes, motorbikes, office and household furniture and electrical, computers, stationery, and used mobile phones or finances that you would want to donate. Many thanks for your kindest partnership in bringing direct hope and love to these children and families in need.
