After months of fighting the Ebola epidemic in Liberia the reopening of schools were not setting but now as l look on the faces of the kids of Liberia and the Carolyn A. Miller’s School I see smarts. The children of Liberia have been out of school due to the Ebola epidemic but with the effort of the people of Liberia and the world now the story has changed. Due to the great improvement in the fight of the Ebola epidemic the Government of Liberia and the Ministry of education have pronounced the re-opening of school is now schedule February 16-March 2, 2015. This pronouncement has been a good news to both parents and schools but there are still conditions that is, many parents feels that their children should be in school at the same time complaining of financial hardship as well as the fear of Epidemic not being total eradicated since Sierra and Guinea still have a lot of cases.
However, the Carolyn A. Miller School has been in a terrible condition since the epidemic, fund donated could not be received since there were some inconsistent, mistakes or human error with our account. We are happy that after five months we have finally received all of the donations that were made to our project and we have been able to settle our rent payment and the renovation work is ongoing now. And we are working overtime to be able to meet up with the re-open date set by the government and the ministry of education. We want to be thankful to globalgiving and all of our donors for their support over the years; you are really making a difference and we are very much appreciative to you. Actually if it hasn’t been for your supports and donations, we couldn’t have being getting ready for school reopening this year. We are be very happy if we can hear from and how we can continue working together to provide the educational for these vulnerable kids of Liberia. Remember that the Ebola epidemic has a lot of challenges to the future of Liberia.
