What would you like people to know about your community?

I work  together with the community people and stakeholders to improve and upgrade the welfare of the less privileged in the communities within the Rural district of Waterloo to realized the necessity of establishment means of contributing to their community needs to improve lives of children, youths and Women in communities by focusing  on Agriculture, Health and microcredit to help them build a new future and their human capital so that they can help to reduce the poverty rate around their communities and the country as a whole.

Since the end of the Ebola in 2015 in Sierra Leone, Waterloo Rural community was among the worst communities affected by the virus; and most youths, women and young children lost their parents and loved ones. Consequently, most of these youths, women and children resorted into drinking, thuggery, and cliques and became drug addicts as a way of caring for themselves and fighting for their daily survival. This situation has apparently led to the general increase in crime rates, school drop outs, early child pregnancy, Early Marriage, FGM, Child Labor, Domestic Violence against Women, prostitution and rape in almost all the communities with in the environs of Waterloo Rural District.
