Additionally, due to LemonAid Fund’s support, over two thousand children have accessed quality education yearly, forty children are currently direct beneficiaries of scholarships and over twenty people have received micro-loans or micro-enterprise start-ups. LemonAid Fund has also worked closely with the Government of Sierra Leone and UNICEF on early childhood education, life skills training, and prevention of HIV/AIDS’s and child protection initiatives. Additionally, we are working with the Forum Against Harmful Practices (FAHP) representing 20 organizations to help stop Harmful Traditional Practices (HTPs), especially Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). Our most recent efforts have successfully linked The Chicago School of Professional Psychology to LemonAid Funds Forgiveness, Gratitude and Appreciation Psychosocial work globally.
