Mr. Thomas Malord Saydee
Summer Camp Motto: Learning, Leading, and Growing Together.
The Kathy Justice Girls Educational Foundation successfully conducted a three-day Summer Camp from December 26–28 in Gbarnga City, B**g County, North-Central Liberia.
The Summer Camp brought together 45 girls representing 10 high schools across five counties in Liberia, providing a platform for education, mentorship, personal development, and peer engagement.
As part of the program, participants underwent a one-day intensive training focused on Family Planning and Substance Abuse Awareness. The Family Planning session was facilitated by Mrs. Kanasuah, who delivered an in-depth presentation on the importance of family planning. She emphasized how teenagers can protect themselves from early pregnancy as well as various sexually transmitted diseases, equipping participants with essential knowledge for making informed and responsible life choices.
The Substance Abuse session was led by our Board Director, Mr. Knight, who highlighted the negative impact of substance abuse on the lives of women and girls across Liberia. He encouraged students to remain committed to their education and to avoid behaviors and activities that could compromise their future and personal development.
Throughout the camp, students had the opportunity to interact, build relationships, and share personal stories. Many of these stories were deeply touching and served as motivation and encouragement for fellow participants. These experiences have further strengthened our resolve to expand this initiative to additional counties across Liberia.
We extend our sincere appreciation to all volunteers and members of the senior leadership team for their guidance and dedication throughout the Summer Camp. Special gratitude is extended to our Founder for her unwavering support and leadership. We also thank the parents and guardians for allowing their children to participate, as well as our associate partners for their prayers and continued support.
As we move forward, the Kathy Justice Girls Educational Foundation remains open to partnerships and donations as we continue to expand our initiatives aimed at promoting education and empowerment for women and girls in Liberia.
Thank you, and God bless.
