One of the primary staples in a child's diet in Sierra Leone is rice, and the children at Hope Orphan Home consume over 300 pounds of it every thirty days. The cost is significant, with each 110-pound bag priced at 735 Leones or approximately $30 USD.
You can play a vital role in helping meet this need. One simple yet effective way to contribute is by recycling aluminum cans, the thirteenth element on the periodic table. Instead of tossing these cans away, consider collecting them and turning them into cash at your local recycling center. The proceeds can make a difference by providing food for our children.
For those who have already been collecting and wish to make a donation, you can send your contributions to:
