Why MARVIE FOUNDATION

Liberia is facing significant challenges in its education system, with only one-third of its 5.2 million population able to read and write. Lack of resources and funding for primary education, coupled with high poverty rates, have led to a high number of out-of-school children and school dropouts. The country also faces ongoing issues such as child labor and resistance to education in certain areas, which disproportionately affects underprivileged children. If current trends continue, the country's Millennium Development Goals for education will not be met.
