She used the occasion to remind Liberians to improve on peacebuilding and early childhood education, and most importantly reach out to orphanages, widows and people living with disabilities.<\/p>\n

In a special message, the USA chairman Mr. Ben G. Gweh, declares that the establishment of the foundation is an opportunity that allows the organization to administer various programs that would address the basic emotional and physical needs of children, including therapeutic and psychosocial services, educational, as well as mentoring.<\/p>\n

Mr. Gweh: \u201cThe DHFI would provide actions for basic education that will address the challenges of limited support to primary and secondary education affecting poor people and vulnerable children living with disabilities, including adolescent girls; ensure effective adult training and education for rural community development, adequate training for teachers, and intellectual and recreational programs for students and other youths.\u201d<\/p>\n

The USA chairman encourages everyone that no matter what, all Liberians should work together to ensure that all the programs that are being designed by the foundation become successful.<\/p>\n

He adds that the foundation would provide programs and services that prepare and equip children and individuals to face the future with confidence, competence and appropriate spiritual, social, financial, technological and educational awareness.<\/p>\n

Mr. Bettrah A Pewee further states that the foundation would promote effective human resource policies in Montserrado County and beyond; organize and conduct conventions, conferences, seminars, consultations, camps, and other social gatherings in harmony with the objective of the organization.<\/p>\n

Commenting on behalf of the invited guest, Dr. Joseph Nyan Gono, vice president for administration, Adventist University of West Africa encouraged the foundation not to be one of the organizations that springs up with big dreams and soon to disappear in thin air.<\/p>\n

Elder Gono cautions: \u201cDHFI not be one of the NGOs to soon disappear, but one that can be relied on, and is sustained.\u201d<\/p>\n
