Support Quality Education in Liberia

    AFRIPAD, Inc
    A project from AFRIPAD, Inc in Monrovia, Liberia
    Liberia youths have been subjected to abject poverty for so long, making it nearly impossible for most to obtain quality education. Hungry students cannot concentrate. We provide Scholarships, Prize competitions, and an upcoming food shelf.

    About this project

    D. Maxwell, Jr from AFRIPAD, Inc is responsible for this project
    Imagine life without any education for 14 years!

    Imagine living in so much poverty that you brain can absorb nothing because you're hungry!

    Imagine that when it was finally OK to begin learning again, you had to sit on bricks and write on sheets of paper!

    Imagine have to read and study on candle light so dull, your eyes hurt every time you read your lessons!

    These are the conditions that Liberian students have had to endure. They are today grateful for the opportunity to return to the class room environment.

    This project is intended to keep that spirit up among students in the country. To provide the means for student to do their best. Through Scholarships, Feeding etc.

    We have also launched an essay competition.

    The essay competition will bring the creativity out of Liberian Students. The best of the best will be identified and exposed to other opportunities that will improve academic excellence.
