During the donation ceremony held at the center, DAQVAH’s Chief Executive Officer and founder, Alhaji Abdul Rahman Jalloh addressed attendees, introducing his remarkable team and highlighting the foundation’s long-term commitment to supporting vulnerable communities. “We have been supporting this organization from its early days in Kenema, that’s over 8 years ago and we have continued our efforts as it relocated to Freetown. After contributing significantly to the construction of this vocational training center, today, we are pleased to further our support with this donation, and we hope to do more with Allah’s help,” he stated. Mr Jalloh emphasized the foundation’s core focus on aiding widows and orphans, calling it a priority area for their charitable interventions. “All we ask for in return is your prayers for our members and our foundation,” he concluded.
Sheikh Sahid Bangura, founder of the Cry of Widows Association, warmly welcomed the DAQVAH team and expressed profound gratitude for their continued support over the years. “The funding from DAQVAH has been instrumental in constructing our vocational training center.

It will significantly enhance the training we provide and empower many women in our community,” he said.
