Sierra Leone Action Mission (SLAM), a project of the registered Canadian charity Accountable Development Works, supports an orphanage providing food, clothing, housing and education for over 40 orphans in war torn and Ebola stricken Koidu, Sierra Leone.
The SLAM Advisory and Fund raising Committee is a volunteer group, receiving no remuneration.
Donors to the SLAM Orphanage receive an income tax deductible Canadian charitable Tax receipt.
With extremely low administrative costs, over 97% of donations go directly to the orphanage.
Ride along with ADW co/founder and volunteer Jason Dudek and make the drive from Kono Hotel to the SLAM orphanage in Eastern Sierra Leone. This video is a striking audio-visual presentation of the state of Sierra Leone’s diamond mining capital which was at the epicentre of the country’s decade long civil war.
ADW’s SLAM project fundraiser, “The World Is Your Runway” fashion show was a great success in 2012 with 350 people in attendance. $2000 was raised for the SLAM orphanage in Sierra Leone, and the show was an exciting mix of fashion, music and youth performances. Thank You to everyone who came – this year’s show will be held November 16th. Event Details are Below:
