Our school in Liberia, Help Liberia Foundation Community School, has received some educational and instructional materials from the Ministry of Education of Liberia.

The materials, which were received a few weeks ago, include English books, maps, atlases, dictionaries and map-like pictorial presentations of various topics and issues: the environment, health and sanitation, family and relationship, animals, community life, time and day, agriculture, activities at school, plants, water and habitats and other topics.

The Principal, Mr. Samuel Nimely, receiving the donations on behalf of the school thanked the Ministry’s officials for assisting the school, indicating that the materials will be used for their intended purpose.

Meanwhile, the teachers and the kids in the school have already started using the materials, which is encouraging.

In the wake of the shortage of desks in our school in Liberia as was announced last year, our foundation has fixed new desks for the children.

The desks, totaling 24, have all been completed and are being used by the students. Our original plan, which was about making 50 new desks with each seating 2 students, was changed and 24 desks were made, with each seating at least 4 students. Depending on the size of the kids, some sit five on the desks.

At the moment, we are pleased to announce that we have no seating problem, at least not in our classrooms. The 24 new desks, added to some of the old ones repaired by us, have solved our no-enough-desk problem for now. There are enough desks for all the children in the school.

We wish to thank all our sponsors and donors whose assistance has enabled us to solve what was a serious problem in the school for more than a year.

Special thanks to Mary Smith of England, a member of the foundation and Facilitator of the school’s activities/projects on Nabuur, for her moral and financial contributions toward the desk project. She’s truly a partner in progress.
