The Sierra Leone Association of Non-Governmental Organizations (SLANGO) hosted its annual Dinner and Dance event last weekend, celebrating the outstanding contributions of NGOs across the country. The event featured music, networking, and the recognition of exceptional achievements in various development sectors.
World Vision Sierra Leone received prestigious awards in two key categories: Education and Gender, Social Welfare, and Inclusion. The organization was honoured for its steadfast commitment to improving educational opportunities for children and promoting gender equality and social inclusion throughout Sierra Leone.
In the Education sector, World Vision’s initiatives have greatly expanded access to quality education, especially in remote and underserved communities. Their programs focus on constructing schools, training teachers, and providing essential learning materials to create a supportive environment for children’s education.
For the Gender, Social Welfare, and Inclusion award, World Vision was recognized for its efforts to empower women and girls, promote gender equality, and support vulnerable populations. Their projects address critical issues such as gender-based violence, child protection, and economic empowerment, contributing to more inclusive and equitable communities.
World Vision Sierra Leone is a non-profit, non-denominational Christian humanitarian organization dedicated to helping children and their communities overcome poverty and achieve their full potential.
