Help Liberia Foundation Community School

Two new sponsors of our school in Buchanan have made a cash donation for the purchase of rice for the kids, the teachers, and other potential beneficiaries.

The two donors are a married couple, George Wass and Munah Nimely Wass. Munah is originally from Liberia, while George is a US citizen. They got married and are happily living together in the United States. Munah works with refugees and immigrants, while George works as a construction project manager.

The couple’s decision to help a Liberian school for poor children was heavily and undoubtedly influenced by Munah, and we are grateful to her for that positive and humanitarian influence on George.

A few days after publishing the last article about the purchase and distribution of seven bags of rice for the kids, teachers, as well as some parents and community residents, based on funds donated by our Norwegian sponsors, led by Sissel Lavoll Martinsen, George and Munah contacted HLF School, informing us about their desire to also purchase some rice for the same purpose.

A day or so later, they transferred $150 via our PayPal account on this (HLF School) website.Because the school closes this week, we have planned to purchase and distribute it as a July 26th (Liberia’s Independence Day) gift to the kids and the others on Saturday, July 25th. The announcement has already been made.

Our heart-felt thanks to George and Munah for this humanitarian gesture.

A little over a week ago, we informed you that the kids of Help Liberia Foundation Community School benefited from a rice distribution made possible by a cash donation from Sissel and her friends in Norway.

As you may recall, we also indicated that others, besides the students, benefited from the distribution, and the others were the teachers, some parents, and some community residents.

They were all appreciative of the gesture, and we are quite happy that we were able to help them in this regard.

As indicated in the previous article, we are thankful to Sissel Lavoll Martinsen and her friends for providing the funds that made us purchase and distribute the rice.

On Wednesday, June 24, 2026, our school in Buchanan, Help Liberia Foundation Community School, purchased some rice and carried out its distribution on the campus.

It was a day of positive surprise and joy for the kids and the others who benefited, as they were not given any prior information about the distribution. The kids especially were excited when the rice arrived, and they were told that it was for them. A total of seven bags of rice was purchased.

The purchase of the rice was made possible through a cash donation from Sissel Martinsen and her friends in Norway.

The children went home excited and joyful on that day, as they left with their plastic bags full of rice. It was really a positive initiative, especially considering the difficult economic condition generally experienced by parents.

We are grateful to Sissel and her friends who provided the funds that made it possible for us to have purchased and distributed the rice. Thank you, Sissel! And please extend our gratitude to your friends who contributed.

Note: There will be another article about the others who benefited.

About two weeks ago, we posted Part I of a pictorial of kids and teachers at Help Liberia Foundation Community School. Today, we are posting Part 2, showing the kids and the teachers in various settings or activities.

Thanks to you all for helping us to educate these underprivileged kids.
