Caking on the Gratitude.
Our Cooking Up Hope students are mighty sweet! The pastry class is currently mastering cake baking and design. The program is a fusion of traditional and modern technology. Pictured are students baking with a coal powered oven.
Liberia’s civil war, which ended in 2003, destroyed much of the country’s power sector. At approximately 12%, Liberia has one of the lowest electricity access rates in the world. Their goal is to increase access to 70% of Monrovia's population and 35% to the rest of the country by 2030.
Until then, we are purchasing a generator to assist with refrigeration challenges and needs. We are grateful to Project Redwood of Tides Foundation for the grant that made this vocational program possible.
#Winning
Hope International School is proud to announce its soccer teams are on a winning streak. The girls team recently advanced to the semi-finals and the boys soccer league brought home a win against one of the top schools in Gardnersville!
Soccer is not only an acclaimed sport at Hope International but all across Liberia. In fact, George Weah, Liberia’s 25th president, was named African, European, and World Player of the Year in 1995 - an unprecedented achievement. His talents on the field were equaled by his activism on behalf of his homeland, where he worked to bring an end to a long civil war and then became active in politics. Weah was elected to a Senate seat in 2014 and has served as president of Liberia since January 2018.
Perhaps one of our students will follow in President Weah's footsteps. With your generosity big dreams like this are possible.
Together, we are The Hope Project.
