Mission: To bring smiles to children in Liberia's poorest areas by providing them access to quality education. Vision: To leverage the power of quality education in order to eliminate the extreme poverty that many Liberians face. On February 11, 2006, William Ward, Achilles Killen, Ernest Harmon and Cyrus Strother met to discuss issues pertaining to the well being of youths in their native country of Liberia. These four young men were determined to become agents of change in order to improve the lives of impoverished Liberian children, many of whom were orphans and former child soldiers. As a result of this meeting, Smile Liberia International, Inc., was formed. It became a registered nonprofit organization on May 15, 2006. We believe that education can be used to reduce the devastating poverty rate in Liberia, as well as rehabilitate the children who have been directly affected by the Liberian civil war.

New Project at Smile Liberia
Project "Send 'em to School" is Smile Liberia's newest effort to ensure that every child in the West Point community obtains an
education. During a recent visit to the West Point area, we discovered that there were more school-aged children out of school than those that are in school. This is due to abject poverty in this community.
A face-lift for Children Hope!
As part of Smile Liberia's commitment of working to improve the learning condition at Children Hope Community School through the School Adoption Project, the CEO of Smile Liberia, Mr. William Ward, recently paid a visit to the school. During his visit, Mr. Ward completed a massive renovation exercise at Children Hope. The renovation exercise included the replacement of the entire roofing of the school, replacement of the interior ceiling mats, painting of the interior and exterior of the school, and the replacement of old blackboards and arm chairs.
