The Challenges

Borlorla Town has more than 200 children between the ages of 4 and 14, and there was never even a school until Teacher Jeanette’s No Child Left Behind started two Pre-K classes there in September 2023. We could only take 50 students into the program and hire two teachers. 

The damaged school building at Peter Sayklon Orphanage needs repair.

2024-2025 Budget

Today, we want to address an important issue: illiteracy!

Yes, even in 2024, millions of children will not be educated because they can’t afford it or have no access to quality, updated curriculum. The Liberia Literary Society created the Teacher Jeanette No Child Left Behind initiative, which emphasizes the academic development of young children living in orphanages and other rural communities without access to school and meets their basic needs for quality primary education.

We provide for 200 students at two orphanages and two rural communities. We want to raise $60,000.00 for backpacks, books, school supplies, teaching tools and supplies, nine teachers’ salaries for one year, and shipment to Liberia, West Africa. Gbarnga, Bong County, Liberia!

Breakdown of expense:
  • 40 chronebook and 2 servers (internet in the box) $17,000.00 (one-time expense)
  • 200 backpacks with books and school supplies $22,000.00
  • 9 teachers salaries for one year $18,000.00
  • Shipment to Liberia $4,000.00

     

    Because Liberia has become a grave for the educational system, the illiteracy rate is so high! The main problem is paying teachers and then the expenses of an updated curriculum. Teachers are paid no more than US $5 daily on average, less than what a regular-size family needs to live daily. So, to overcome this problem, we partnered with orphanages and rural communities to enhance children’s education.

We don’t know how much potential these children have, but there is one way to find out! It doesn’t matter how much you donate, every penny counts! Your little amount can educate a child and make their life better! So, let’s come together and walk these children to a brighter and better future!! By providing access to quality education, we bring the classroom to the students. Please donate as much as you can.

Thank you! 🙂

Education in Liberia is free for primary students attending a government school, but most of these schools lack adequate learning facilities. Most parents prefer sending their kids to private schools, which are often very expensive for the average Liberian.

Given the importance of education for shaping the Liberian society of tomorrow, our No Child Left Behind in Liberia is set on the practice of educating children at an orphanage or rural community that isn’t part of the public schooling system. This is carried out by a teacher in person.

Liberia Literary Society is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization registered in the state of Minnesota, USA. Our mission is to provide resources to preserve Liberia’s literary works, advance girls’ education and youth development, and give children access to quality education, one of today’s most urgent priorities.

If you would like to join us in impacting the education crisis in Liberia, our team is ready to discuss strategies to optimize your charitable giving goals, whether through donations of books, teaching supplies, school supplies, or donations toward teachers’ salaries. Your donations mean helping a child suffering from no or low-quality teaching and learning, especially those living in rural communities or an orphanage without access to updated primary education. Our mission is to improve access to up-to-date primary education.
