Progress Report
We progress report so donors can see exactly where their support goes. This page reflects the current state of the build as of March 2026.
Every phase, every dollar — in the open.
JULY 2026
First section of the fence complete
Workers raced the rain through 9 bags of cement, then started a new section once 25 bags ran out and another 50 were bought (receipt given). By the 7th one part of the fence was finished, الحمد الله — and 20 lengths of iron rod were bought for the pillars on the next section. Three Sierra Leonean helpers from the land dispute, and Sister Aisha visiting from America, were welcomed to the group chat.
Brickmaking resumes, cement runs out
With the first section's bricks all used up, brickmaking resumed for the next stretch despite heavy rain — 500 of the 800+ needed are ready, and cement has run out, so more needs buying this week.
