There are three Rotary clubs in Sierra Leone; , two are in the capital Freetown and the other at Bo - the second largest city in Sierre Leone, with a population 175,000.

 

The club - chartered in 1988 - has 17 members and meets at 5pm on Wednesdays at Fair View Lodge, Bo/Taiama Highway, Kebbie Town - Bo, Bo, Sierra Leone.

 

One of the club's major projects was construction of a 21 bed hospital, the Bo Children's Hospital,  with major help from the Rotary Club of Turramurra, Sydney, Australia,  and others.  The Rotary Club of Bo is highly active within the local community and was responsible for the construction of the hospital.  Initially the club ran the hospital but has now transferred ownership to the local community and has a representative on the hospital's community management board.
