The "Hands Off Our Girls" campaign was launched in December 2018 by Her Excellency Fatima Jabi Mada Bio, First Lady of the President of Sierra Leone, with the aim of calling on society to raise awareness of the protection of women and support access to humanitarian assistance for women and girls. The campaign has had great success in recent years in improving the quality of life of young girls and women in Sierra Leone and further ensuring that women's basic human rights are upheld.
The event also served as a fundraising dinner for the 34th Military Hospital expansion and renovation project in Sierra Leone. The 34th Military Hospital is not only the only military hospital in Sierra Leone, but also the partner hospital of the Fifth Medical Center of the PLA. The Military Medical team of Sierra Leone aims to help treat critically ill patients and provide medical support for emergency rescue missions in Sierra Leone. The hospital expansion and renovation project is of great significance to improve people's livelihood and medical level.
