Thanks in part to your ongoing support, the Develop Africa Sierra Leone (DASL) team held another girls’ mentoring program in December on choosing a career.  Thirty-two young ladies between the ages of 10-20 years old in Freetown attended the mentoring session.   Lunch and transportation were provided to the girls in attendance as well as a care package including sardines, mayonnaise, noodles, and custard. 

The purpose of the session was to create career path guidance for the girls. The guest speaker gave a 3-hour presentation on the following:  the definition of career, the importance of career talks, the types of careers with examples, and selecting a career path.

The speaker encouraged the girls to have passion for whatever they do, according to her having passion for what you do is a significant force that helps one to succeed in their undertakings.  The girls asked a series of questions and all expressed gratitude for the important information provided at the mentoring session.
