Although the kids in our school are given the chance or opportunity to play and have fun while in school, we do focus on the main purpose for which they are in the school, that is, to help them learn and have a better future.

The following photos, except for one, show kids of HLF School in their learning mood, as the staffers are determined to help them grow academically so that they can have a future that is different from their current conditions.

Before our school could re-open in September, we painted both the interiors and the exteriors of the main building and the annex that Help Liberia Foundation is operating in, so as to give the school a facelift.

It is a normal exercise that we carry out every year before the resumption of classes, and we were pleased to have done that this year before our kids could return and sit in their various classes for the new academic year.

Our school in Buchanan City, Grand Bassa County, Help Liberia Foundation Community School, continues to provide education to children who come from boor background, where their parents are not financially capable of sending them to the many expensive schools operating in the country.

In September of this year, we re-opened our doors to the kids for the 2023/2024 academic year, which runs from September 2023 to July 2024.

Although some of our old teachers and students left the school for various reasons, we are pleased to have back our many old teachers and students, as we join hands with new teachers and new students to go through this new academic year. So, again, parents, teachers, and students are once more interacting.

However, we are sad to report that the hard economic conditions most Liberians are going through at the moment has caused some parents not to send their children to school. Many parents are unemployed and, if they even have a job to do, it is just what is described as hand-to-mouth earning, which is not sufficient to take care of the family, including sending their kids to school.

We hope things will improve in the country so that parents can have employment opportunities to continuously send their kids to school.

We wish to use this time to thank all those who are still encouraging us to continue to help these kids to obtain their education through the effort applied by our school.

At the juncture, we wish to apologize for not posting any information/article about the closing program of the 2022/2023 school year in July. It was not intentional. We had a very serious problem with phone and photo taking on the day of the program. This will not be repeated.

Meanwhile, anyone who has the desire to help the school through any means is encouraged to kindly contact Lena in Sweden.

Thanks to everyone for the start of a new academic year!
