1. Cover school costs:
$3000—$5000
It costs $3000-$5000 to run a school. For the 2007-2008 school year, we have three schools fully funded so far but are in need of funds for seven additional schools.
2. Provide school supplies for 1850 children: $1600
Pencils/pens, notebooks, crayons, and sharpeners - some kids in rural Liberia have only one pencil for a whole school year. Your help in supplying these materials will greatly aid the children in their learning.
School supplies always needed!
5. Training Workshop for Teachers: $150 per workshop Some of the schools we have are new. Most of the teachers do not have degrees in teaching.They love the Lord and the children and want to make a difference in the lives of the children. Attending a teacher’s training workshop once or twice a year will help equip them.
4 workshops still need funded for the 07-08 school year!
3. Collect used or new English
dictionaries - 800 still needed!
Our students are learning English as a second language, so dictionaries are very helpful. One dictionary is passed around from family to family in a village because they are so rare. Please contact us about how and where to ship any dictionaries you collect.
4. Blackboards, Chalk, Pens, Pencils, Roll Books: $250
Our dedicated teachers in Liberia are overjoyed when they receive the basic tools for their teaching, including blackboards, chalk, pens, pencils and roll books. 4 schools still need these supplies!
