Healthy Schools International


  • Mission

    We help students in Sierra Leone and Kenya to thrive by partnering with their schools to implement clean water, safe sanitation and solar energy projects.

    About Us

    Founded in 2010, Healthy Schools International, Inc (previously Deeper Missions, Inc) is a US-based, all-volunteer 501(c)3 charitable nonprofit, also registered as an international NGO with the government of Sierra Leone. We believe in "hand up" partnerships with schools and their communities in Africa; what this looks like is a 2- to 5-year relationship which implements and teaches sustainment of the clean infrastructure that helps enhance the health of the students. Additionally, we seek to work with the school to develop profit-generating services or products based on the clean infrastructure we help implement. This revenue stream at a minimum supports the maintenance of the infrastructure and, hopefully, can grow to help offset school operation costs.
