Sembehun Village

Sembehun village is located northeast of Bo, the second largest town in Sierra Leone. 

Schools for Salone will build a structure with four classrooms, an office and a store room, separate latrines and a water well.

Funding for this project were raised at the August 2009 events held in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. 

Groundbreaking ceremonies were held October 12th, 2009, with construction begining soon after. 

Opening Ceremonies were held February 17, 2010. 
More photos coming Soon!
