Now these ladies really can sing but you can just make out our Hope Sakuma Chairman, Mr Bangura, introduing the oldest Pa's in MaSillah, Sanda Magbolonto Chiefdom, Port Loko. With Confidence the chief organizer explains Sakuma is being invited in. He has organzied everyone, all the women and all the men and everyone is ready to work with us to the end. A very precious offer setting a high bar for us to live up to.

THE SAKUMA OFFER

Our offer is simple: we provide feeding during rainy season and a helping hand with seed, fertilizer, drying and storage facilities and in return we split the harvest 3 ways - a third saved for seed; a third for co-op members and a third to Hope to genrate an income for our interim care and kinship fostering programmes. It's an offer that's proving popular because we value womenshare our good fortune and give something back....
