Mr. Julius is a 32 years old small scale entrepreneur based in the North West Region of Cameroon. His story is quite motivating. Zion A Happy Home Foundation met him in Kumba in 2016 at a very critical moment in his life. He was seriously sick, bed ridden and abandoned all alone to face death, added to the fact that he was an orphan. We began praying for him and miraculously God healed him. Though restored healthwise, he had no money and nothing to begin life with. But fortunately for Mr. Julius this was at the time we just launched project GESTURES OF GOODWILL - SELF SUSTAINABILITY, that aimed at empowering the poor and under privileged with a sustainable economically rewarding activity. We mobilized funds and opened him a mobile money transfer and credit vendor agency to enable him find his footing financially. Over the years we've expanded his business and he is now able to do mobile phone repairs. Interestingly, he is a happily married man now.

Malaria is endemic in Sierra Leone. The country's entire population is at risk of the disease and it is one of Sierra Leone’s leading causes of death and illness. Malaria is the reason behind nearly four in ten hospital consultations countrywide.
Children under five are at high risk of malaria.
Young children are particularly susceptible to infection, illness and death from malaria. In Sierra Leone, the disease contributes to close to an estimated twenty percent of child mortality. The 31st of May 2020 witnessed the launching of Project MALARIA NO MORE in SIERRA LEONE.This novel project of Zion A Happy Home Foundation targeted the distribution of Mosquito nets to 50 families in the Bonga Ton slum community in Freetown.

The outbreak of the Corona virus pandemic has led to a serious economic recession across the globe and Sierra Leone in particular is badly affected. Most underprivileged persons, communities, and groups find it extremely difficult to feed. And many even go for days without food. Serving as a strong source for food to eradicate hunger in underserved communities being part of our mission, we were able with the aid of some individuals to identify the Milton Margai School for the Blind located at Wilkinson Road in Freetown as one of the institutions in need. This school lacks food to feed its blind students, a vocational training center and adequate funding. Responding to this plight, Zion A Happy Home Foundation visited them on the 7th of June 2020 with food to last them a while. And we pledged to be of more assistance to the school, not just in solving their feeding problems but equally financing the institution so that the visually impaired can be well cared for.
