Description:

Located in Kakata, Liberia, The Mentee Education Foundation is committed to providing the next generation of Liberian children a progressive and comprehensive education.  Liberia suffered from a long period of civil unrest and is now has many children without a school to attend.  Antoinette Brewster, the foundation founder and director, grew up in the Kakata area and has an intimate understanding of the communities needs.

 

Construction for Change has partnered with the Mentee Educational Foundation to design and build a school located in Kakata, Liberia.   The initial four classroom building will have the capacity to serve 150-250 students and will focus on early education.  The foundation sees an immediate need in the area for a school that would serve over 1000 students and plans to use the initial construction project to grow into a campus with the appropriate capacity for the area.
