Shine On tells the story of Shine On Sierra Leone (SOSL), an innovative education-based cultural partnership that focuses on social development through personal transformation.

Over the past eight years, SOSL has provided 2,800 students with a highly reputable primary education, granted 7,000 women micro-loans, trained 12,000 individuals in computer literacy and 600 individuals in adult literacy, as well as launched a maternal and child health care program for 50,000 individuals.

Shine On chronicles SOSL’s evolution from a traditional charity to an organization that fosters personal development as a tool for social transformation. This unique philosophy and pedagogy has had phenomenal results–most notably elevating its primary school from number 736 in the district to number 2.
