About the charity

Green-Works is currently helping rebuild Sierra Leone’s schools, orphanages, libraries and health centres following the devastation of civil war. Literacy rates are amongst the lowest in the world, only 30% of children can go to school. Classes are up to 100 as 49% of the population is UNDER 16. Education is vital; there are no desks or chairs to use. £5 enables Green-Works to provide school equipment for one child - for their entire school life. Green-Works donate and exports redundant furniture, to a range of infrastructure projects in the developing world, including an orphanage in Romania; NGO projects in Benin, Gambia and Ghana, even equipping an entire dentistry hospital in Khartoum.
