Initiative For A Better Africa
“Empowering Africa through education”
The prosperity of a country depends, not on the abundance of its revenues, nor on the strength of its fortifications, but on the number of its cultivated citizens, its men of education, enlightenment, and character
•
It is through education that the daughter of a peasant can become a doctor, that a son of a mineworker can become the head of the mine, that a child of farm workers can become the president of a great nation
•
Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world
•
The power of education extends beyond the development of skills we need for economic success. It can contribute to nation-building and reconciliation.
•
Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today
•
Books are the treasured wealth of the world and the fit inheritance of generations and nations
•
GDP per Capita in Liberia: Approximately $580 (as of recent estimates);Average Yearly Tuition Cost: Around $75 per student, including registration fees and other associated costs
•
In a country with an average income of $580, a $75 tuition fee is a major barrier to education. Your donation can break this barrier and give a child in Liberia the chance to learn and thrive
