Medical Emergency Aid for our partners in Guinea Appeal

How do you help your community when seriously ill?

As the festive season approaches, the spirit of giving comes alive in our hearts. This Christmas, the Alanouwaly Salifou Sylla Foundation invites you to join us in a truly meaningful mission: bringing essential medical aid to the the self-help group in Boke.

Guinea is a country rich in culture and resilience, but it faces significant healthcare challenges that have been exacerbated by limited resources and infrastructure. The Alanouwaly Salifou Sylla Foundation has been dedicated to supporting the self-help projects of our partners, Alanouwaly Guinee . Essential members of the community group have been wrecked by too many emergency health crisis.

Our goal for the ‘Christmas 2024 Medical Aid for Guinea Appeal’ is to raise £850. These funds will be crucial to avoid disaster when illness strikes.

What can you do?

Examples of what medical costs are:

  • Malaria  –  £30 – 70
  • Foot injury  – £30
  • Snake Bite –  £ 20
  • Multiple Bee stings  – £ 50 
  • Tubercoulosis  – £ 160 
  • Cardiovascular disease – £65 
  • Pregnancy care  – £75

Any amount helps Alanouwaly Guinee members to avoid calamity! You will help all the local community!The impact of your generosity will extend beyond this holiday season. You will help ensure those members’ health who dedicate themselves to improving local people’s skills and self-help. This Christmas, gift the gift of health and hope. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to a brighter tomorrow.

Join our mission and be a part of something extraordinary. Your support can light up lives and rekindle the promise of a better world for our friends in Boke. Please donate to the ‘Christmas 2024 Medical Aid for Guinea Appeal’ and help us make a real difference.

With heartfelt gratitude, The Alanouwaly Salifou Sylla Foundation Team

13th Salifest

Due to the Covid19 pandemic we had to hold the 13th Salifest online.

It was sad not to meet, exchange and celebrate in person, but we did get a lot of participation from all over the world! Lovely music from Africa as well as the UK, well-wishers & photos of support from many continents and countries, dance workshops and even a “how to cook Salifest Food” video. As usual we had all backgrounds and age groups involved

Please see the films and more here
