Schools for Salone

is a non-profit organization committed to helping Sierra Leoneans rebuild the many rural schools destroyed during their country's ten year long civil war that ended in 2002.

We seek to revitalize communities, empower children and ultimately improve socioeconomic conditions for families, communities, and future generations.

Through opportunities that only an education can provide, we strive to break the cycle of poverty, one school at a time.
