On Wednesday 15 November 2017, the government officially closed relief camps, which hosted the August 1, 2017 landslide and flood disaster victims. However, the Don Bosco Fambul have extended their temporary relief camp to the 15 December 2017.
The Deputy Director of the organisation, Samuel Bo-John said they are housing about 227 survivors with 152 children. He noted one reason to extend the camp was to afford the children to complete their school terms. He said most of the children are attending school at their Fort Street location.
The All Stars Musicians and Heal Sierra Leone presented some learning materials, clothing, snacks and toiletries for the survivors.
