Funders:

Comic Relief
Comic Relief - a UK-based international charity organisation - funds the Four Cities Initiative to address the growing challenges of slum growth in Sub-Saharan Africa. In 2012, after a scoping survey of cities across Africa, four cities were selected including Freetown (Sierra Leone).Five organisations were selected as direct implementing partners and grantees after successfully submitting proposals. These five successful grantees came together to form the “Freetown Urban Slum Initiative” or “Pull Slum Pan Pipul” Programme as a means of strengthening collaboration and maximising use of resources and creating impactful results.
