A Note from Our Founder
Dear Friends:
I was born and raised in Freetown, Sierra Leone, West Africa. I grew up in the Eastern part of Freetown. While in Africa, I saw a great need in my local community. There were children hanging out in the market areas and some even slept on vendors’ tables.
The Lord called me back to Africa in 2000 while I was stationed in Germany with the United States Army. He showed me a vision of His calling on my life and put a burden in my heart for other post war children. My heart’s desire is to fulfill the calling God has placed in my heart by promoting the welfare of children in Africa.
"You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts." - 2 Corinthians 3:3
Share HEART in Africa, Inc. will provide a safe, healthy, educational and nurturing environment for disadvantaged children. This nonprofit organization will start its operation in Sierra Leone, West Africa and eventually expand, by God’s grace, throughout all of Africa.
Share HEART in Africa is committed to giving HOPE to future Leaders in Africa. This God-given vision directs our passion for seeing children and their nations transformed. Our hope is that each child will fully grow up, take what they have learned and become an agent of change in their community.
Our approach to accomplishing this vision is to rescue the most vulnerable children, bring them into a caring family, then teach them by example transformational truths by national and international staff and volunteers. Our desire is to increase each child’s opportunities for success. In addition, we long to extend our care to the communities in which our children live and to partner with caregivers in ways that create sustainability. We invite you, our US and international partners, using your gifts, time, and talents to participate in the lives of our children. Whether you are participating as staff, volunteer, or donor, we all are loving on these children. You are our family and your contribution to Share HEART is significant in the lives of these children.
As a Christian Mission, we are dependent upon God’s Spirit for leading, guiding, providing, and sustaining this work. We believe that in every way He has gone before, and He never leads us to a place that he has not already gone. This is a work He prepared for us to walk in (Eph 2:10) and that He alone sustains. We understand that who we are provides a greater capacity for us to care for these children in a holistic manner; and unique potential through physical, emotional, social, mental, and spiritual development ... in relation to self, others, and the environment. This holistic, yet Christ-centered approach, will allow our children to experience personal transformation and become the advocates for change in their nations.
Thank you for your contribution to Share HEART in Africa, Inc. and to the forming and shaping of many young lives for Christ and His Kingdom. We invite you to learn more about Share HEART in Africa through this website.
In HIS Service,
Saffiatu Harper
