Youth Mired in Poverty without any Hopes, Dreams
and Opportunities

Doing business or running an organization or school
in Monrovia, Liberia comes with a very high-priced
security tag. In the early hours of the morning
on February 4, 2001, an armed robber attacked
two security guards hired by the school I founded
a few years ago, the Ward Academy for Girls, at
96 Clay Street (between Clay Street and Johnson
Streets near the Soneiwen area).

Helping
the Saye Town Fire Victims
By

On
Sunday, January 31, 2010, at about 9:00 PM a fire
was started by a candle in the Saye Town Community
on 3rd Street in Sinkor. When the fire was finally
extinguished around 3:00 am, 18 homes lay in total
ruin and approximately 200 people were left homeless,
including men, women and children.
On
Friday, February 5th, TLC Africa visited the devastated
community. The Liberian Red Cross was on site
when we arrived. They had been distributing rice,
mattresses and water to the people affected by
the fire. President Sirleaf had also contributed
$5,000.00 of her own money to help the affected
victims. I sat down and talk with some of the
women about the fire and their prospect for the
immediate future. Full
