Access to the Future





According to the World Health Organization, 80% of persons with disabilities living in developing third world countries account for the 20% of the world’s poorest and they are 3 times more likely to be unemployed and in real poverty.



Imagine being handicapped in a third world where there is little to no help or resources. Imagine not being able to attend college because you get around in a wheel chair and there are no wheel chair ramps to access the buildings. What would your future be?

We at Global Orphan Outreach along with Cuttington University in Liberia invite you to help open that world of education to students with handicaps by helping us to raise the necessary funds to build eleven ramps on this campus. Cuttington has made the commitment to provide the labor all that is needed is the funds to build the ramps. (Funds needed to be raised yet is 7,700.00) The goal is to have funds raised and ramps built by the time we travel to Liberia in October to bring pictures and reports back.

Won’t you help today? Please help these students access this college thus having access to a bright future for themselves. Thank you!
