Sierra Leone

Our Locations

 Polio and Children in Need Charity (PACINC) supports projects at two sites in Sierra Leone.  

Makeni

In 2015, Polio and Children in Need Charity provided funds for the purchase of food and utensils to the Magbenteh Polio Camp.  The Camp is a self-sustaining community of over 100 people, including some 50 children, most of whom are affected by polio or other neuro muscular disorders. 
The funding was provided at the time of the Ebola outbreak.  Mercifully, no persons from the camp fell victim to Ebola. 

Kambia

In 2016, Polio and Children in Need Charity worked with Children in Crisis (a UK registered charity), to provide funding for the educational, nutritional, and medical welfare of 12 polio-affected children at the Residential Rehabilitation Centre operated by a local NGO, the Welfare Society for the Disabled.
