In the video below, Dr. Brima Kargbo, the Chief Medical Officer of the Ministry of Health And Sanitation, Sierra Leone expresses his gratitude on behalf of the Ministry for the provision of 3 very large boxes of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).  The medical items - including goggles, gloves, full body coveralls, nose / mouth masks and body bags - were provided in partnership with The Prince of Wales Alumni Association (GA Chapter, USA) and GlobalGiving.

Sylvester is specifically thanked by name for his leadership in facilitating the provision of these and other items- starting around 39 seconds into the video.

From 2014-2015, Develop Africa coordinated the provision of over 27,000 items of PPE - with a value of over USD 20,000.  Some items were provided through partnership with other organizations and some items were directly purchased by Develop Africa.
