The Importance Of Sierra Leone Donation

By Henry Davis


According to a famous Bangladeshi who won a Nobel Peace Prize in the past, future generations should only see poverty in the museums. Poverty needs to be a thing of the past. Unfortunately, many Sierra Leonean families are encumbered in the ever vicious circle of poverty. A heartfelt Sierra Leone donation will help to break this circle. Even a one dollar donation is sufficient. If every person in the developed world gives just one dollar towards a noble cause, the developing world will become a better place. The spirit of charity will make it possible for many families not to sleep hungry.

Poverty is a bad thing. Actually, it is a scar in the conscience of the world. One can wonder why other people are poor yet this is the century that has produced many dollar millionaires and billionaires. Some people simply do not have the means to pull themselves out of poverty. That makes them to operate in the vicious poverty circle.

Humanity can be freed of poverty. There is a solution to poverty and it is not about giving the fish. It is rather teaching a person to fish. That is the true meaning of empowerment and it is what some charities are doing. These organizations need donations so that they can continue doing their noble endeavors all over the world.

Even the most basic of human needs, water, is lacking in some parts of Sierra Leone. Water is life. It is sad that a human being has to drink dirty water that is not even fit for animals. That is the irony of life; some people just have too much while others have barely anything and live on less than a dollar.

Universal access of clean water is a Millennium Development Goal (MDG). Hopefully, this goal will be achieved in the near future. Lack of water is not the only problem in Sierra Leone. Hunger is also prevalent because of crop failure. One should donate food to the hungry. Helping the poor is something that always leads to a ton of blessings.

Education is not a luxury. It is a basic need. That is due to the fact that knowledge is power and ignorance is not bliss. Unfortunately, many children in Sierra Leone cannot attend schools because there are no schools in their areas. Donations towards helping with the construction of schools in Africa will be appreciated by many African children.

The Sierra Leonean healthcare sector needs financial support. Global health organizations are already helping but their support is not enough. The support of everyday men and women will end up making many in Africa to enjoy high quality healthcare. No child deserves to die because of malaria or polio. These are diseases that need to be fully eliminated.

A person can donate in cash or in kind. There is no donation that is too little. Even the smallest donation is usually appreciated. One should donate according to his means. There is the need to donate to a credible organization. Thus, before making any contribution, one should take time to establish if the charity in question has a good reputation.
