Come and hear stories of hope and success from Sierra Leone!

Tamaraneh means “people helping eachother” in the Temne language, and that is exactly what we have been doing. To support the efforts of Memunatu Kamara to rebuild her village in Sierra Leone, the Tamaraneh Society has built, staffed and run two schools, dug one water well, provided seeds for three community gardens and almost finished constructing a health centre. The projects are run by the local community and coordinated by our Tamaraneh board and our Canadian project coordinator, Memunatu Kamara. Six villages - almost 4000 people - benefit from our schools and water and will also use the health centre when it is completed.

All proceeds to fund schools, health centre and clean water in Northern Sierra Leone.

Highlights:

-African fashion show, coordinated by Angela Sesay
-New paintings by David Shkolny
-Trailer from documentary on Memunata Kamara, by local filmmaker Rosie Dransfeld
