Part 1: From Sacramento to Sierra Leone
- Over 1000 families in California sponsor children in Sierra Leone through non-profit “World Vision” (1,063 in CA, 3772 in US). A good number of those sponsors live in the Sacramento viewing area… and we’re going to introduce a lucky few to their sponsored children through the power of video.
- We’ll first shoot a video message from the sponsor to their child… We’ll also talk to the sponsors about how they chose their child… why they chose Sierra Leone… and what they expect to see when we shoot a day-in-the-life of their child.
- Then we head to the Bagbo ADP in Sierra Leone to spend some time with the sponsored children. We’ll follow them around to get an idea of their day-to-day life… And we’ll talk to them about daily challenges, their dreams & how their life has been impacted by their sponsor.
- We’ll also examine how NGO’s & charities are impacting Sierra Leone.
- Many argue that charity provides a patch and that jobs and infrastructure are necessary for any real impact. By interviewing folks at World Vision, Children of the Nations & Global Witness, we’ll examine how sponsorship programs like this one actually impact the larger communities.
