While the country struggled against the deadly EBOLA virus outbreak in 2014/15, BlueCrest persevered with the good people of Sierra Leone and continued to remain open thereby showing solidarity with the nation in the moment of dire need. As the country recovered from the scourge of Ebola in early 2015, BlueCrest was firmly positioned to help rebuild the nation through its capacity building programs for the youth.
