On behalf of the Board of Directors, Management and Staff of National Children Foundation & Community Empowerment Organization (NACFCEO) Inc. Liberia extend greetings to the EJAF.

    However We want to appeal to the EJAF to extend the HIV / AIDS program to Liberia. Presently there are more four (4) thousand people affected with HIV / AIDS cases.

    We need a door to door 1. HIV / AIDS Awareness Campaign in Community , Slum Area, especially high Schools , College and University .Local Governance people, Market Places in Liberia and 2. Special treatment and counseling program in various hospital in Liberia.
    We need financial help to fund such program and medication for those affected.

    Since the Ebola out break HIV / AIDS Patients have been forgotten. We need help for these people to provide counseling , treatment, follow up to encourage them to take their medication and if possible shelter to abused women and Children and do referral when there is a need. We need funds, please help in this direction by adding our Country Liberia on the EJAF funding list.
