Support Traumatized Child Soldiers in Liberia!

Dear Donor,

In our last report, we shared with you the Ebola project that was necessary even before we made preparations to build a re-integration center for the former child soldiers of Liberia.  These former child soldiers were the most vulnerable due to the conditions of their living.  We are happy to tell you the Ebola project was completed successfully!

Ebola Campaign Impact:

There was tremendous output from 10 different communities at the campaign exercise. They were eager to understand how they could help fight the Ebola pandemic themselves. Concrete education and prevention on the virus were provided to the communities. They were all happy to receive such education and physical illustration on the origin and danger of Ebola. Each community was given a bucket/barrel, chlorines, and soap as practical means of fighting the Ebola virus.  Each member of the community also became an educator in promoting safety measures on the Ebola pandemic in their various homes.

Reintegration Center Update

Now that the Ebola pandemic is under control, our full focus is on the Reintegration Center.  The first part of the project is to prepare the farmland which will help rehabilitate the soldiers and help make the center able to support itself.  In the past two weeks, local workers from Little Bassa provided the brushing and tree felling services.  Now the land is ready from burning and clearing (which is scheduled in February).  As we receive more donations we will be able to continue with the next part of the project.

Thank you for your contributions.  If you would like the new Action10 monthly newsletter, you can sign up at Action10.org.

All the best to you and your family.
