Action by Churches Together (ACT)
Appeal - Sierra Leone
Post-War Reconstruction & Recovery & Assistance
  to Liberian Refugees - AFSL-31 (Revision 2)
Appeal Target: US$ 2,757,461
Balance Requested from ACT Network:  US$ 1,868,794
Geneva, 13 June 2003


This appeal was originally issued on 17 April 2003 with Lutheran World
Federation Department of World (LWF/DWS) as the implementing member and
was revised on 3 June to include the United Methodist Committee on Relief
(UMCOR) proposal.

This is the second revision as the Lutheran World Federation programme in
Sierra Leone has revised their budget in the appeal to ensure that only
programmes that could realistically be completed by December 2003 remain
in the appeal.  The activities that have been removed from the original
proposal are school construction and swamp rice development.  Also the
UNHCR has raised their budget on the camp management activities,
drastically reducing the funds requested from the ACT network for this
purpose. Apart from the removal of the two activities mentioned above, all
other activities in the appeal remain unchanged.  We therefore attach the
budget which replaces the LWF budget in the appeal and request you to use
this budget for the LWF programme instead.

Please note that the UMCOR component of the appeal is not affected and
therefore, remains as in revision 1 of the appeal issued 3 June 2003.


Project Completion Date: 
LWF/DWS -  31 December 2003
UMCOR   -  30 April 2004
