Mission Statement
To sustain the development of urban, rural, underdeveloped communities and societies by cultivating young minds, empowering youth development and establishing sustainable resources that will give children an opportunity to lead a progressive future.
Description
As a result of a decades long civil war, and the most recent Ebola crisis, children in Liberia confront a variety of unsavory conditions on a daily basis. In addition to fighting extreme poverty, rampant unemployment, and a lack of a functioning school system, thousands of young people (children) live in conditions with little hope for their future.
Save More Kids (SMK) was founded in 2013 to bring hope to children - to be a voice for them and work to improve the conditions in which they live. SMK is a recognized 501(c)3 organization for international aid and relief for the war torn country of Liberia in West Africa.
SAVE MORE KIDS
We have a 3 pronged approach to fixing long-term problems in Liberia:
Empower young people by meeting them where they are; being visible and connected with their life.
Mentor their hearts, connecting their minds to open their eyes to the problems that continues to cripple
their environment, and future.
Provide them with the resources they need so that they will become a viable solution to the problems
threating their communities!
Simply put, the best way to solve long-term problems is by creating an environment where the youth and the community can become major stakeholders as part of the solution to the problems they face.
