Football Campaign to use Agriculture as a means of Alleviating Poverty

On the 8th of July, 2020 Zion A Happy Home Foundation organized a sensitization  seminar under the theme "ZION A HAPPY HOME FOUNDATION FOOTBALL CAMPAIGN TO USE AGRICULTURE AS A MEANS OF ALLEVIATING POVERTY IN SIERRA LEONE. This conference took place at Kaningo Juba neighbourhood, and it brought together 130 youths between the ages of 15 to 35years old. The  objective of this conference was to sensitize these youths through football campaigns how they can make agriculture their source of livelihood and the hope for the future we long create. Also, these youths were drilled on the importance of agriculture in the world and the vital role it plays especially in 3rd world economies and that of Sierra Leone in particular.  According to www.usaid.gov/ Sierra Leone, Agriculture ( including forestry and fisheries) is the mainstay of the Sierraleonean economy, employing over 60% of the labour force mostly at the subsistence level. Zion A Happy Home encouraged youths to farm Rice and Cassava which are the main staple foods of the country, while Cocoa, coffee, oil palm and cashew nuts are the major cash crops. For a start, Zion A Happy Home Foundation envisages sponsoring over 4000 youths financially while providing them with the necessary agricultrural implements required for the cultivation of these aforementioned crops. Join us by either partnering, donating or sponsoring this journey of transformation aimed at facilitating the growth and development of Sierra Leone through its youths. And equally reducing unemployment and its related quagmires.
