Help us Create the University of Koinadugu

Project 1808-Bringing higher education from the city to the village! Education provides the key to job security, community growth and individual wellness. However, not all individuals can travel to or live in the large cities where universities are located. Establishing the University of Koinadugu in one of the most isolated districts of Sierra Leone, will empower youth and improve community livelihood in the district and country.
