At Hope International every day is International Day of the Girl where females are 50% of the student body (Liberia's national average is 27%) and 8 of our 13 university scholarship recipients.
Today we celebrate strong hope and strong women! Through your generosity, we are ensuring that Liberia’s girls are equipped to chase their dreams.
The future of Liberia is in safe and beautiful hands.
At 4am yesterday morning, we received a call from Ghana while Moses was being fitted for his new hearing aid. He is grateful and asked us to share his deep gratitude for what was made possible for him.
He has been tested, fitted, and stocked with batteries. He and Frances, a Hope International teacher who volunteered to accompany Moses, will stay a few more days in Ghana to ensure that all is in good working order and no other hearing aid adjustments are needed.
The journey to get Moses this hearing aid was literally (cross-country and over a 1 ½ years) and figuratively (Covid shutdowns, birth certificates, passports, and travel) so very long. It all began when we asked if anyone had a connection to an audiologist. A Hope Project partner put us in contact with the person who then connected us with the Starkey Hearing Foundation. What followed was additional Hope Project partners joining together with Moses’s Liberian community of support to help him receive the gift of hearing. Though the process was long, all of that seems to fade now when you see the joy that hearing again brings.
Thank you to all that made this possible. It’s a beautiful thing.
In Liberia, students will be returning to school on November 1, 2021. Workers on the ground are ensuring that the new classroom building will be complete and ready.
Day by day, brick by brick, student by student, it truly is the school that love has built. Thank you for making it all possible.
