As our school plans to reopen its academic doors to needy kids who will register to start school in September, we intend to give them free copybooks.

We are aware that many parents are going through financial difficulties, so we intend to provide this assistance to the kids so that the parents’ financial burden can be lessened.

Our plan is to give one dozen of copybooks to each student. A dozen of copybooks costs about $4.00, while half dozen is about $2.00.

We are therefore launching this fundraising to enable us help the kids with copybooks. We are appealing to all of you, both individuals and institutions of goodwill, to help us purchase copybooks for these children.

You may choose to buy a dozen or just a half dozen of copybooks. It is said that little is much to the needy.

For now, our target is 30 (thirty) students. However, should we raise more money than required for the 30 students, we will use the extra funds to cater to other children who may register later, or we may buy food and distribute it among the kids.

Just in case you wish to help the school to give free copybooks to these students, here are three different ways you could send your donation or contribution:

1. You may send your contribution via our PayPal account, controlled by Mrs. Lena Thorne Marner and Mr. Anders Marner of Sweden.
2. You may also send your contribution via Western Union or MoneyGram, using the name of one of our Board members, James Sumo.
3. You may also use Send Wave, Taptap, or Western Union to send your donation directly to this MTN Mobile Money transfer number: +231881895978. It bears the name Paul Yeenie Harry.

We are appealing to you to join us in helping the kids with this back-to-school gift. Let’s help give a better future to these children.

The fundraising recently launched for the purpose of fixing toilets for the kids and the staff in the school has successfully come to an end, with the total of USD686 raised for the project.

The total estimated cost of the project was USD683, but we were able to raise USD686, which is USD3 more than the estimate. This is a significant achievement for all – the donors, the school, the kids, the staff, the parents, the Board, etc.

The total amount raised from fundraising came from six individuals and one institution, named, respectively, as follows: Mary Smith, Isabelle Eriksson Mozo, Anna Dobrowolska, Catherine Walker, Catherine Jamieson, Lena Thorne Marner, and Pepperadventure.

Pepperadventure is a Swedish-based tourist and expedition organization that organizes periodic tourist-related trips and travels for people in Europe, who want to visit Liberia.

Pepperadventure is the leading organization in Europe for special tourist-related trips to Liberia, and the cost is reasonable. It has been in existence for more than ten years. It is owned and operated by Lena and her husband (Anders).

On behalf of the Board, the kids, the staff, and the parents, we would like to extend special thanks and appreciation to the six individuals, as well as Pepperadventure, for willingly and selflessly donating to the toilet project! We remain profoundly grateful!

The construction work will begin, and we will update you all on the progress made at specific points.

Once again, a very big THANK YOU to all of you for your kindness! Thanks a lot for remembering the kids in Liberia, especially in Buchanan! We did it together!

We wish to inform everyone that we have been able to raise $213 of the total of $683 thus far, making the balance to be raised $470.

The $213 raised so far was donated by four people, namely: Isabelle Eriksson Mozo in Sweden, Catharine Walker in the UK, Mary Smith in the UK, and Anna Dobrowolska in Poland.

Our heart-felt thanks to Isabelle, Catharine, Mary, and Anna for their generous donations for the cause of the kids!  We remain grateful!

We are appealing to other individuals and institutions of good will to kindly help us raise the balance $470, as fixing the toilet for the kids is a demand the Authorities at the Education Ministry are making. They are saying our school will not be allowed to re-open or operate next month, if the toilet is not fixed.

Please help us raise the balance $470 so that we can be able to fix the toilet and re-open our school to give the kids the opportunities to learn.

Thanks in advance for your willingness and readiness to help us raise the needed amount! Any and every amount will be appreciated! We need your help!
