The Kindess of Quarantine Kits

 

As COVID-19 cases increase in Liberia, so does food scarcity. Bulk buying and exorbitant pricing for essentials such as rice have forced many families to survive on flour alone. Already vulnerable, this is creating dire hardship for the community surrounding Hope International.

In response to the urgent needs of the community, our Liberian partners are assembling Quarantine Kits. Each kit provides a household (4-6 people) with a 2-week supply of essentials: 

  • Rice

  • Cooking Oil

  • Sanitation Supplies

  • Masks

Principal Joseph Cummings has identified families in need and will distribute the kits to community members surrounding Hope International. 

Please join us today in providing our vulnerable families with emergency essentials. Gift a family in need with a Quarantine Kit for $40. Your $40 donation provides the purchasing power needed to acquire these supplies for our students and families, teachers, staff, and friends of HOPE. 

We are each other’s safety net.

Mask Up.

You are masking up Liberia! Your generosity has not only provided masks for Hope International students but the communities surrounding our school. Pictured are some of our senior students and principal Joseph Cumming distributing masks that were made onsite at Hope International’s sewing lab, with funds that you generously gave.

Your gifts have a life-saving impact. Thank you for your continued partnership in HOPE.

Update: Seniors Back on Campus

On Monday, June 29th, the senior class returned to Hope International. The Ministry of Education has required high school seniors to return to classes where they will prepare for the West African Senior Certificate Exams in August. Passing this exam is a requirement to receive a high school diploma in Liberia.

Much like the United States, Liberia is experiencing a spike in COVID-19. Therefore, the classroom looks a little different for students and teachers. Temperature checks, hand washing stations, social distance, and masks are now part of their daily routine. Read more on how you can help our hope-chasers to fulfill their dreams of education while staying healthy.
