Welcome to the Kids Action Website
Kids Action is a Scottish registered charity established in 2004.
The charity took over the long term care of a group of kids in the Kids Action home in Freetown who had been abandoned during the war in 1998.
In 2010 UNICEF introduced a national reunification project in Sierra Leone that affected the home and we were required to rehabilitate the kids into family life in the community. The home was closed in 2010 and the children placed with relatives or carers.
Most are living with very poor families and need our ongoing support. We continue to help them towards achieving independence and leading a meaningful life.
In total we support nineteen former residents of the home. Two now attend University and College and the remainder attend secondary schools scattered around the country.
Whilst this has been the core project of Kids Action it is not and has not been the only project that we have successfully undertaken. See our Projects Page.
