ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SIERRA ENGLAND LINK

 

(LR) Ndemowoma & Lucas)

Evandro Lucas-Rafael and Ndemowoma Y. Mustapha served a full-time proselytising mission in South Africa for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for a period of two years. They both served together in a small city call KwaDukuza in KwaZulu-Nata Province in the Republic of South Africa. It was fun serving around each other. Lucas was admired for his sense of maturity backed by consideration and love for the Saviour, Jesus Christ.

Evandro on one hand is an English from Manchester city in the United Kingdom. Ndemowoma on the hand is from a Small West Africa country of Sierra Leone. They both value friendship. Thus, even after their service in the Southern hemisphire they wanted to stay in tourch. Hence, the need for an establishment of Sierra England LINK.

Sierra England LINKis a tripartite establishment of which initially was developed by two former missionaries (Evandro and Ndemowoma) who served a Full-time Proselytizing Mission in the Southern Hemisphere,as earlier stated above. This was later joined by another childhood friend of Evandro - Mario Jacinto. It is borne out of a strong desire for self-actualization and the need to positively impact the lives of other vulnerable young people. 

The name Sierra England LINK is because one of the founders is from a small West African country named Sierra Leone, and the two others from England in Great Britain. Plans are underway to register it in Sierra Leone with Councils and other line Ministries/Department and Agencies in order to obtain its full legal status of operation.

Our activities include but are not limited to the following; Crop Farming, Animal Husbandry, Community mobilization, sensitization and training and Counseling around SRH, HIV/AIDS, COVID-19 and GBV.

 OBJECTIVES:

  • To increase general awareness among all categories of people on Sexual Reproductive Health (SRH), Gender-Based Violence, COVID-19, HIV/AIDS and its related problems with specific attention to Female Youth and Children.

2021 IYD YOUTH SUMMIT AT RADISSON BLU CONFERENCE CENTRE


 





Youth issues are key to our agenda

 

There are thousands of vulnerable Youths in Sierra Leone facing numerous challenges, ranging from Sexual and Reproductive Health, Low Level Skills, Unemployment, Infantilisation, barriers to access to capital for entrepreneurial ventures, and a host of other issues. 

These plights, among others require urgent redress. Hence, the need for the establishment of Sierra England LINK - a Youth Organisation, to compliment government efforts towards Youth Development and Empowerment, in the area of Agro Business, Livelihood and Skills Development and dissemination of Health information on SRH.
