SCHOLARSHIP FUND
Educating Liberia's Future Peacemakers and
Environmental Activists
Our scholarship program is unique in many ways:
-
Our carefully selected group of scholarship recipients are closely monitored
and supported by loving adults from their community.
-
In addition to schooling, they receive training in a variety of life skills, including peacebuilding, permaculture, environmental restoration, trauma healing and traditional culture.
-
During vacation time they do community service and ongoing outreach to others like themselves through workshops, reforestation and community engagement.
Today, our students and graduates are working in building trades, social work, nursing, environmental restoration, permaculture and peacebuilding. All of these students are committed to using their educations to help restore stability and peace in post- conflict Liberia.
