This School has made me realize that no matter your age, you can accomplish your dreams. I am proud of being a junior student now and can’t wait for 12th grade. At my job site, elevation has been a problem for me because of my low credentials, but the night school has reawakened my desire for learning. My reading ability has improved tremendously, and I can’t just believe that I am solving Chemistry and Physics problems again on my own.

My name is Marthaline Kpoto and I am 14 years old.
“Both of my parents died from the Ebola virus when I was 6 years old, so my uncle Jallah brought me to the orphanage on January 16, 2015. After my parents died, I stopped going to school. Since my uncle brought me to the orphanage, I started going to school. I am happy to see myself going to school, and I am a 7th grade student at Bishop Miller school. I love being with my brothers and sisters at the home. Thank you all so much for your love and support.”
My name is Moses Dorley and I am 26 years old.
“I came to the home when I was 7 years old, and I became the first child under the care and support of the orphanage, to complete high school at the age of 17. As a child coming up, I developed so much love and passion for computers. I am an intern at a music studio here now, and I am hoping that someday I can open my own recording studio. Thank you to the donors. I will make good use of your efforts, and I know you will be proud the day that the Liberian music industry will award me as the best music producer in Liberia.”
