    Sierra Leone’s 11-year civil war caused widespread devastation to the country’s essential infrastructure. This left entire communities without access to basic education or medical care. In rural areas, where resources were already limited, the collapse of both health and learning systems has had lasting negative impacts.

    As we continue to build schools and maternal health campuses side by side in communities of need, our hope is that safe, inclusive, quality, and equitable education and healthcare access will be a foundational tool to propel communities out of poverty.

    One of our recent ventures, the building of the MPATHIK maternal health campus in Sierra Leone provides critical pre and post natal care for expecting new mothers. Since opening in 2024, the clinic has provided treatment for thousands of individuals and helped to safely welcome over 100 babies into the world.

    “MPATHIK is dedicated to making a difference in healthcare and prioritizing collaboration to change the lives of patients. Healthcare equity around the world is a crucial piece of this, and why we’ve worked to develop a strategic partnership with the Thaakat Foundation.

    Read Hawa’s Story of Hope

    Our patient, Hawa’s story is one of thousands that gives insight into the impact of our facilities and care team. She had lost all hope when she visited the center last year with symptoms of malaria. The skilled midwife decided to conduct a pregnancy test. Everyone was shocked and in disbelief when the result came out positive as Hawa believed she was past her childbearing years.

     

    With the help of the skilled midwife and nurses at the center, her pregnancy was given special care and monitored closely with so much love. After 36 weeks, the cries of a baby graced the delivery room. The room was filled with joy and the family members around erupted in jubilation. The child was named “Munda”, which literally means “our own “in mende. This is usually a name given to a child who will be great and will impact the community positively.

    What makes our work unique is our ongoing commitment to standing by what we build. We conduct annual audits to ensure each facility remains resourced, active, and impactful. These will never be abandoned buildings, we want them to be centers of hope. It’s part of our long-term strategy to ensure that every initiative provides lasting impact.
