Challenge

Geraldine is an Ebola orphan and also an Ebola survivor. She completed high school this summer. This fall, she will be attending computer classes (and other classes as needed - to strengthen her educational foundation), in preparation for college admission in 2017. She needs your help to cover the costs of a laptop, computer training and first-year college-related expenses.

Solution

Funds from this project will help Geraldine purchase a computer and continue her education to become a lawyer - her desired future profession. Your support will help provide all she needs to be successful in school and ensure that she continues her education.

Long-Term Impact

Healthy, well-educated and emancipated women are an excellent foundation for a new and free society. Your support will help Geraldine to become independent and self-sufficient. In her chosen future career as a professional lawyer, she will also be contributing to national development.
