Dear Family and Friends,

As many of you may be aware, over the past few years hundreds of Liberians have lost their homes to erosion and sand-mining. Unfortunately, because of lack of money and awareness, this national disaster could lead to thousands more made homeless and half of our land submerged under water.

Currently, our government is financially burdened with the monumental task of rebuilding our war torn country and can only commit limited resources to correcting this disaster.

More recently (please see attached articles), 700 Liberians lost their homes due to ocean erosion. Those individuals are in desperate need of assistance: financial, clothing, food, and housing.

Given the above situation and the desperation associated with it, we are asking that you kindly help us realize our mission by making a tax deductible donation to our cause.

  Meet and Greet/Family Fun Day

 
   
 
In the summer of 2008, the LEADER Fund held its very first fundraiser in Maryland. It was a two day event created to raise awareness of our organization. On June 20th 2008 the LEADER Fund invited guests for a “Meet and Greet” Information Session. Well wishers and guests were given an opportunity to learn more about our organization. We welcomed their questions and suggestions about the direction in which our organization is headed. On June 21st, 2008, we held a “Family and Fun Day” at the park in Prince George’s county where there were soccer games, kick ball games, lots of food. A fun time was had by all, and it gave the LEADER Fund members a chance to know each other better and discuss the future of our organization.
 
     
  A Party for a Cause (White & Denim Party)

 
   
 
In the fall of 2008, some members of the LEADER Fund held a second fundraiser in Minnesota; so called “A Party for a Cause. It was a White and Denim affair where renowned comedian Boima Freeman entertained the guests with his comedic talent. Invitees enjoyed lots of good food and drinks that night. And even though the event did not raise as much money as anticipated, it served to raise awareness in the area. We were provided air time and were able to communicate our goals, objectives, and efforts to the listening audience.
