Mankoro's Children Update:
In 2017, Sheku and his in-country team of teachers and social workers arranged for 53 children from four impoverished amputee camps to attend school for one year. This was done at the request of amputee families who were unable to afford the cost of school for their children. We paid the school fees and provided uniforms, shoes, backpacks, books and writing materials.
In November 2018, Sheku went back with Hands On Sierra Leone to deliver more supplies to the students and monitor their progress. Please check out our service trip album below to learn more!
