Street Child of Sierra Leone

Street Child of Sierra Leone

Street Child is a volunteer-led charity, which works to help children get off the streets, back home and into full time education. Street Child provides children still living on the streets with vital food, medical care, clothing and counselling. And we help to provide deprived rural communities with their first-ever basic schools.  As a result of our work since 2008, over 1000 children have been reunited with their families, and over 3000 children are now in school. At Street Child, we are very proud of our volunteer-based approach. Our pledge is to spend 90% of public donations in Sierra Leone, and to keep our office overheads in London as low as possible.
