Benediktbeurer (76) helps in Sierra Leone: The “new family” has grown. The rehabilitation center “New Fambul” (German: new family) was built on 2.7 hectares that were previously just steppe.

200 children and young people live on the site. There is a house there for underage girls who have previously only been able to survive on the streets of Freetown through prostitution. Girls who have been victims of sexual abuse or violence live in the third house.
