Every child is a unique individual that deserves a chance to become whatever they want. In fact, it should be a basic right. Worldwide, too many children are growing up in poor conditions. To give the children of Liberia a chance, My Little Haven is working very hard to make a difference for them.

Liberia is one of the most impoverished countries in Africa and has been in a state of civil war for the past 14 years. The country is ranked 168 out of 188 in the Human Development Index. Just like every other country, Liberia has its own set of problems that affect children, such as poverty, lack of education, abuse, losing their parents and more. This blog is meant to give these children a voice and raise awareness of their struggles. You will also be given tools to help the children in Liberia. 

Millions of children in Africa lack access to schools, which means they don’t get the education they need to succeed as adults. The world has committed to change this through the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, which call for universal primary education by 2030. While this goal may seem ambitious, there are many reasons why it’s critical that it will be met soon.

Education is a fundamental human right, but it’s also a fundamental necessity. When we have a more educated population, society progresses and prospers. That’s why it’s so important to build schools in Liberia and other parts of our world that are struggling with poverty and civil unrest. Every child deserves access to quality education, including children living in developing countries.
