Help a boy or girl from African Dream Academy, Monrovia, Liberia receive his or her only holiday gift. Liberia is one of the 8 poorest countries in the world and the students live without electricity and running water.

Pick up a red bag with a child's name, age and grade on it. Fill it with goodies and return to the Lobby by October 17 at the latest. Then we will pack barrels and ship them to Liberia. Please include a composition book, pens and pencils. Other suggestions: a toothbrush and toothpaste, soap, Band aids, pair of socks, hard candy, paper, markers, crayons, glue, tape, other art supplies, sunglasses, a ball, an age-appropriate paperback book, a flashlight, deck of cards, toys for younger children (little cars, little dolls, etc.), toiletries for older girls, headbands, barrettes, jewelry, lip gloss, deodorant, and mosquito repellent bracelets. Enclose a note or card if you like!

Some of you don’t have time to shop, so we have compiled an Amazon Gift Registry if you find it easier to shop online.

Either way, you will give the 1500 children at ADA a Dream Holiday! If you would like to contribute to shipping costs, we welcome gifts of $20 or more. You can write a check to African Dream Academy Foundation and drop it off at school or you can donate HERE.

Your donation is safe, secure, and private.

Please do not put checks in the bag.
