This year, Restore Hope: Liberia supported more children than ever before.
We supported a total of 260 students by providing the resources needed for them to attend school. 198 are attending Kolahun Academy, a literacy-first program implemented by our partner, Rebuild Africa. 37 students, many of whom live too far to attend Kolahun Academy, received full scholarships to attend primary or secondary school in their village. 25 students are on scholarship at the local community college studying nursing and agriculture.
Our community-based talk therapy program reached over 1,000 women who were experiencing depression. We know that healing a mother’s depression has positive impacts on the whole household. For their children, they often have better nutrition, increased school attendance, and improved well-being. Most women living in the area we serve have five children. This means, we've positively impacted 5,000 children by supporting their mothers.
Thank you for joining us in this work and making a meaningful difference in the lives of children in this remote, underserved area of Liberia.
Blessings to you and yours this holiday season.
With gratitude,
Saundra
