School
Day Pack
Your gift will provide a student with the basics - pencils, paper,
ruler, crayons – in a pack of her own to take to school every day.
$5.
Sponsor a Teacher
Teacher payrolls in Liberia’s cash-strapped orphan schools
are unstable and frequently there is not enough money at the end of the month
to pay salaries.Teachers have to find a
day’s work for a day’s pay outside of the classroom to feed their own families.Your gift of a month’s sponsorship will give
the teacher a dependable income and help her/him stay in the classroom every
day.
$35.
Give a bag of rice
With the global food crisis, the
cost of rice has risen steeply in Liberia, which is dependent on Chinese
exports of its number one staple food. Liberians eat rice every day, and its
supply is the most costly burden at every orphanage. Your gift of $50 will
provide rice for an orphanage in need, which will produce over
240 meals' worth.
$50.
Teacher/Classroom Supplies
Your gift of $75 will send a
classroom kit and a teacher resource kit for 25 students and their teacher in
our partner orphan schools. The kits are
shipped directly to the schools and distributed to teachers who struggle
valiantly with so few supplies to teach children who are eager to learn.
$75.
However your gift finds its way to
a LOEP partner, you can be assured that it will have a lasting impact on
educational opportunities for many children.
LOEP is committed to helping Liberian orphans become educated citizens of the world. Liberia is a nation of just over 3 million people according to UN statistics. The chilling fact is this small struggling nation has a quarter of a million orpahans.
