HLF School Kids Help with Pre-opening Clean-up Exercise

Some kids of Help Liberia Foundation Community School came on campus to help carry out some clean-up exercise before the resumption of classes in the new school year.

They helped sweep the premises, including the classrooms and around the main school building and the annex built for the kindergarten division, as they expressed their willingness and readiness to start taking lessons.

The kids also helped with dusting the benches, cleaning the floors, and cleaning and re-organizing the Principal’s Office. In short, they helped give the school a facelift.

Meanwhile, a lot of children have not registered due to financial difficulties faced by most parents, which difficulties are a result of unemployment, very low income, etc.

HLF School is established to help educate poor children, but the school has to pay the teachers who teach there. And getting funds to pay the teachers is the main problem facing the school, as we need about US$200 (Two Hundred United States Dollars) per month to be able to pay teachers monthly.

If we could get ten (10) sponsors willing to help with at least $20 each per month for support for teachers’ salaries, or if we could get twenty (20) sponsors with each paying $10 per month toward teachers’ salaries, the problem would be solved and the school would be able to take in more and more children from poor background.

Things are quite difficult in Liberia; hence, if nothing is done to help poor children go to school, many poor children will continue to be illiterate in the society.
