PRINCESS PROMISE INC

We desire to provide freedom, hope, and healing so these young girls can live abundant lives in Christ. Our end goal is that the girls will become leaders for the next generation in Sierra Leone. They will be well equipped and self-sufficient to become nurses, doctors, teachers, social workers, lawyers, accountants, or whatever they are passionate about. Our hope is that they can look back and understand what Satan meant for evil, God intended for good.

We’ve partnered with a local Sierra Leonean ministry called Love One Another Children’s Ministry, that works to turn disadvantaged children into advantaged adults. Together, we have a care center for young girls that provides a safe space to meet their physical, emotional, mental and spiritual needs. Our caregivers give round-the-clock care to the Princess Project girls. We provide each child with the ability to attend school with afternoon tutoring sessions. Our on-site social workers provide girls with life skills and personal hygiene guidance. They are fed fruits, vegetables, protein, daily vitamins and health care in our safe home environment. The girls are also active in the Love One Another Baptist Church where they are receiving biblical teaching and weekly Bible studies.

We are fully capable of accomplishing our tasks. With a well-equipped 18-person team in Sierra Leone, every dollar fundraised goes directly to the growth of our girls’ programs. Using our resources, we employ Sierra Leonean staff which includes social workers, drivers, caregivers, teachers, tutors and guards. Princess Project works with The Ministry of Social Welfare to identify vulnerable children and regulate our services.

Princess Project has served 50 vulnerable young girls to date. We have created and implemented an after-school tutoring program that over 30 girls are involved with five days a week. We’ve acquired a 15 passenger van and a 4 Runner to make our employees more efficient and effective in their work. Princess Project currently employs 18 Sierra Leoneans, from social workers, drivers, teachers, tutors and guards to give our girls individualized 24-hour care. The building project has begun on our five-acre property, our future Child Protection Center, that will encompass the fully-funded girls’ home, multipurpose dining hall, school, church, soccer field, medical clinic and a 10-foot safety wall surrounding the perimeter. 71% of our girls are fully sponsored through our child sponsorship program.
