Who is Jallah?

With God’s help and his mother’s heroism, Jallah narrowly escaped being a child soldier during the Liberian Civil Wars. He lived in remote villages, constantly hiding from the brutal rebel commanders recruiting children.

A few years later, Jallah convinced his mother to send him back to school during the first “cease fire” agreement between warring factions. Because she couldn’t afford to send him to school, Jallah sold doughnuts and water bottles on the streets to obtain his own elementary school tuition until a church stepped in to pay his tuition in Monrovia, Liberia.

How Jallah's Vision Is Changing Lives

Support Jallah's Dream for Youth

Quotes from Jallah

I graduated in 2019, and YesLiberia played a vital role in making that possible. I am truly grateful for their support.

Since my father passed away, my mother could barely afford our tuition and other needs. Life was tough until I joined the YesLiberia scholarship program. Now, I am a high school graduate, and I hope to continue my education at the university, though I am still seeking funds to support this journey.

I am grateful for the opportunity YesLiberia gave me to be part of its scholarship program. It has exposed me to pursuing my dream, and I am now doing a skilled job that helps sustain me while I pray for support to further my education at the university level.

I am grateful for the support YesLiberis has given me from high school to graduation. I hope to see my dreams come true, and with YL’s continued support, I believe I can achieve success.

I am deeply grateful to YesLiberia for the opportunity to be enrolled in their scholarship program. My dream is to become an agriculturist, and I pray that YesLiberia will support me in pursuing this dream at the university level.

I joined YesLiberia in 2016 and graduated in 2023. I was drawn to the scholarship because of its criteria, which challenged me to work harder and achieve good grades. Today, I am proud to have completed high school.

I come from a very poor background, and my family could barely afford school needs for me and my siblings. I walked a long distance to reach school each day. I am truly grateful to YL for their support throughout my high school journey, and I hope this help continues into my university education.

I trust in the mission of YesLiberia, which ensures we receive continuous support in our educational pursuits. My sincere thanks to the entire team.

YesLiberia has been generous to me and my family, covering my school fees and consistently motivating me in my passion as a track and field athlete.

For a long time, I was often sent out of class for not paying tuition while my classmates continued learning. That struggle came to an end when YL awarded me a scholarship. Today, I have successfully completed high school and am now awaiting graduation.

I became a YesLiberia Scholar while I was still in high school, and I felt excited because I realized it had eased some of the burdens on my family. It also gave me the opportunity to truly feel like a scholar among my peers.

Good works and generosity are what I have learned from YesLiberia. My father is a police officer but cannot afford to pay for all of my siblings and me at the same time. With the help of YL, the burdens on my father have lessened.
