Street Child began its work in Sierra Leone in 2008 working with a small number of street children. As little as five years later, we had helped around 2,000 street children create stronger bonds with their families and have helped more than 20,000 out of school children gain access to education.
Street Child continues to have a huge presence in Sierra Leone, working where the need is greatest and the help from NGOs and other charities is often least.
Since 2012, Street Child has been conducting needs assessments throughout West Africa in a bid to take the models that we’ve developed in Sierra Leone to other nations desperately in need of help.
