C.U.P Kakata, Liberia School Projects

Liberia been the oldest African nation with vast natural resources and highly fatal lands, it is considered one of the poorest countries in the world. Most of the country infrastructure and systems were destroyed in the first Liberian civil war. The war was one of Africa's bloodiest. From 1989 to 1996, it claimed the lives of more than 200,000 Liberians and further displaced a million others into refugee camps in neighboring countries. After two year of peace, there was a Second Liberian Civil War that lasted from 1999 to 2003. Child soldiers were used throughout these wars. As the result of these long civil conflicts, according to world estimates 1,426,826 persons or 47.5% of adult population (aged 15 years and above) in Liberia are able to read and write. Most families are barely able to feed themselves or even keep their children in school. The Courage Uplifting Projects; was established to help these struggling patients and their children with education, feeding and basic health care.
