Education Initiative

The mission of H.E.L.P. Education Support Initiative is to improve Reading and Mathematics skills in preschool through high school students. The emphasis will be on acquiring an income bearing trade. Many Liberians did not attend or complete school during the civil war and the unfortunate spread of the Ebola virus. As a result of the initiative, we anticipate greater success in school and a higher quality of day-to-day life.

Support preschoolers by providing consistent educational opportunities through high school. The support staff members will follow each class of students until they complete high school. H.E.L.P. Support staff will monitor national test scores, and supply students with test preparatory classes.

The mission of the H.E.L.P. Health Clinic is to support the health needs of women and children in the economically disadvantaged country of Liberia, West Africa. The clinic will provide Liberians with discounted, or free, healthcare services including pre and postnatal care, PAP smears, breast exams, pediatric checkups and blood pressure/glucose screenings. Other general healthcare services will be provided as well.

H.E.L.P.’s primary goal is to positively impact health outcomes across Liberia. More specifically, H.E.L.P. will decrease maternal and infant mortality rates and empower Liberians to successfully manage and mitigate health crises such as Ebola and COVID-19. Additionally, the clinic will provide the Liberian community with screening equipment for the diagnosis and treatment of prenatal and neonatal diseases related to pregnancy. Liberia loses approximately 11,000 children a year to treatable illnesses and one out of ten women die during pregnancy. H.E.LP. will provide the resources to significantly decrease these numbers.
