RISE PROJECT

Rise is a program that finds brilliant people who need opportunity and supports them for life as they work to serve others.  John is one of the contestants for the RISE project 2022. At UWC-Liberia one of our main goals is to support brilliant students that are taking initiative in their community. We are very glad to share John's project which is about providing clean and adequate water to his community. Below are images of his project

                    

The initiative is to provide water facility for members of Sugar Hill community Margibi County, Kakata. In the photo community members are working together to fetch water for their neighbours. Every act of service matters. People walk for miles to get water. The idea is to inspire hope in members of this community to work together for the betterment of the community.
