- About Me:
- I am a founding member of a non-profit organization, the Liberia Education Project. The goal is to help with the social and educational needs of children in Liberia, West Africa. I visited Liberia in Dec./08 and Jan./09. I saw war affected children on the streets in the cities and in the villages who are not in school due to the limited number of schools and lack of sponsorship. If anyone is interested in making a difference in the lives of these future leaders, please contact me. I brought a lot of photos back with me of some of these school age children.

Hope things are going well for you. Hope school finished up well for you. Sorry we didn't get a chance to meet when you were out here - I left for Ghana while you were here, and it was crazy getting everything ready this time. Keep in touch!

Thanks Again!
My main focus is women in Africa - I have seen up close and personal that grants and charity have their place, but can never have the impact that business does. My dream is to be instrumental in alleviating poverty the only way I can see to alleviate poverty is to make a profit and equitably redistribute it through the market.
