Hi S.Kamara,

What a great program with such an impressive reach! Are there other programs in Sierra Leone like this one, or are you one of a kind?

Thanks for you submission and thank you for your life changing community work!

Thank you Nika for the compliment. As I mentioned it earlier in my email replied to you,its mighty be other organisations doing the smaething but mine was rooted from life experienced as survivor of war and now a disabled so I did understand the neglect and abuse Amputee people are face everyday in life despite am not a Amputee but I do have disability too. Finally, I look forward in working with all of you and your organisations in partnership and informations sharing.

Thanks,

Salifu Kamara

Hi Salifu:

Thank you for the compelling work you are doing in Sierra Leone!

Im wondering if you have ever worked with Mercy Corps in the area of soccer instruction. I know they do great work with youth in Africa and may be a great resource for you.

Thanks for applying and good luck in the competition!

Hi Salifu,

Have you faced any challenges in having the girls and women playing football? Are the families supportive?

I'm wondering if you know the work of Women Win.

Women Win is the first ever international women’s fund that supports sport and physical activities as instruments for social change and women’s empowerment.

Women Win will use the competition to find a fellow between the ages of 15 and 65 years old that positively change the lives of women and girls in their community through sports.
