LIBERIA - MONROVIA : Student Scholarship Program

This is an educational program to help disadvantaged students receive funding for school.  We cover Grade School through University.  Each student is assessed and screened before funding is granted.  Each student must qualify under our application policies, and must comply with our expected standard for education.  Currently we have over 100 students enrolled in schools across Liberia.   

In Liberia there is a tuition fee for each child, so it is impossible for many to get to school in a land where unemployment is so high.  Through education, our orphaned children and youth are building towards a more promising future.     

In June 2010, we will have our first students graduating with degrees in Business Management, Public Administration, Economics, Pharmacy, and Sociology.  We have others who have already graduated from trade schools and colleges with diplomas in accounting, electronics, electrical, plumbing, masonry etc.  With schooling and trades we are seeing our students step out to fultill their dreams. 

 

Our partner organization, Provision of Hope, Karen Barkman, is dedicated to serving the poor in Liberia, West Africa. [Click here to learn more about our partner]
