"Liberia was a life changing experience. It really opened my eyes to what is happening around me. We are so consumed in our own success as a country that we forget how blessed we are."

Jeffrey Butler | Morehouse College

"A brilliant woman named Shirley Chisholm once said 'Service is the rent we pay for the privilege of living on the earth.' Through my experience in Liberia, I have gained a true understanding and responsibility to the service contribution I can and will make to help improve the lives of others around the world."

Imani Bey | Spelman College

"It was a pleasure to be afforded the opportunity to learn and serve abroad. It is imperative for students to think with a global perspective in the 21st Century. This experience has provided me with a thorough understanding and appreciation for Liberia's rich history and culture.

This program has impacted my life and career aspirations by expanding my horizons. I now want to create a pipeline for students in Liberia to study at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU's) in the USA, fully covered financially. With their new skills obtained from HBCUs, they must return home so they can develop Liberia to help stimulate the local economy."

Anthony Collier | Texas Southern University

"Life changing. Perspective altering. Humbling. My moments in Liberia are most precious and important to me. From the sights I was able to see; the stories that I was privileged to hear; and the geniune interactions that I encountered; I left Liberia completely full. It was great to go home."

Kyree Gooding | Clark Atlanta University
