About Us
Our History
Founded in January 2001 by Dr. Adonis Abboud, Shellac Sonny Davies, and Barbara Bangura, Pikin Bizness began as a charitable organization focused on bringing joy and support to children across Sierra Leone. Initially, in collaboration with organizations like the World Food Programme (WFP), the US Embassy, and UNAMSIL, Pikin Bizness organized country-wide Christmas gift distributions, reaching thousands of children with educational materials, sweets, and other gifts.
What We Do
Over the years, our focus has expanded to include critical health interventions, especially for children with severe medical conditions. In 2005, we launched a campaign to help children with heart deficiencies, facilitating overseas cardiac treatments for numerous children. Each treatment costs over ten thousand dollars, but the impact on these young lives is immeasurable
Beyond heart surgeries, we also support children with various other medical needs, including spine and hip replacements. Our collaborations with the Ministry of Health and Sanitation and the Ministry of Gender and Children’s Affairs have been pivotal in extending our reach and effectiveness. Together, we have reduced the number of street children by providing scholarships and better living conditions.
Vision
At Pikin Bizness, our vision is to create a future where every child in Sierra Leone has access to essential health care, quality education, and the opportunity to thrive in a safe and supportive environment. We envision a society where no child is left behind due to circumstances beyond their control and where every child can realize their full potential. Through our comprehensive programs and dedicated efforts, we aim to break the cycle of poverty and illness, empowering the next generation to build a better, more prosperous Sierra Leone.
Mission
Pikin Bizness is dedicated to transforming the lives of children in Sierra Leone by providing essential health, educational, and economic support. Our mission is to create a safe and nurturing environment where children can thrive and grow, regardless of their circumstances.
