Adopt Kpeletayama Village
Bringing Help and Hope Through Partnership

A Brief Profile of Kpeletayama Village:
Kpeletayama is a village in Suakoko District, Bong County, Liberia. It contains about nine huts. This village is surrounded by over ten villages with similar conditions. It is a 'village with nothing'. With the population put together, 500+ people benefit from the partnership of Global Orphan Outreach and projects being implemented there.

The people in this village are simply "existing" while others are living. They are without basic life necessities. No access to medical care, schooling, or latrines. And up until April of this year, no access to clean water until a new well was put in by Global Orphan Outreach. They had been washing and drinking from a small muddy river. They are desperate for hope and change not only for their future but for their children's future as well. Your help is a LIGHT IN DARKNESS. This village could be the "Nazareth of Liberia" where no one expects any good thing. For those with hearts for humanity, I invite your investment in this village and your dividend will be one of eternity. -Pst Peter Flomo

Global Orphan Outreach in Partnership with the people of Kpetelayma Village and Pst Peter Flomo intend to bring about several self-sustaining and much needed projects. Below are the following projects. Please consider making a donation to bring hope and life to this village with nothing. Together we can empower the Liberians of this village to be self-sustaining and give them hope for a better future.

Orphan Grain Project-
Project goal:
-To create a way for Liberians to be self-sufficient in generating an income by growing crops and bringing them to market
-Provide sustainable food for the Kpeletayama Village and Orphans. This will be done by planting a rice and peanut crop. Once this is addressed common diseases and disabilities due to malnourishment become addressed.
-To build a school in the New Life Community that is self-supported from the sale of rice crops. This in turn will provide quality education to children in the Kpeletayama village, orphans in foster care, and the street children.
"Education is one of the building blocks towards giving Liberians a better future"

Great King Academy
Mission: To help Street children, foster children, and forgotten Children regain their potentials through quality education.This school project is the vision of Pastor Peter Flomo who operates foster homes in Liberia through his organization-Abandoned Children's Care Foundation. It is his desire to see these same children have opportunities at a future through education. Great King Academy is located in the New Life Community. The Orphan Grain Project/Ag project will go a long way in helping to sustain this school. Construction has started but much help is still needed.

Gbonquoisue Mobile Medical Clinic
Plans are underway for the undertaking of a mobile medical clinic that will travel to the interior several times a week to help those in need of medical help. One of the biggest needs in this village besides education was their desperate need for medical. (Gbonquoisue-meaning bush people) A base clinic will be in Monrovia with the medical unit driving out to Kpetelayama village and surrounding areas to serve those needing medical help.
Donations both financial and in medical supplies will be needed. If you can help in this area, please contact Donna Barber-#715-415-4401

Kpetelayama Bush School
One of our discoveries while visiting Kpetelayama village was that no one in the village was educated. This was due to the lack of a teacher willing to live within the community because there was not adequate housing for the teacher to live in. Plans are being finalized to build a small home similar to the picture below that will provide housing for a school teacher. Books and school supplies will also be needed for the children. The students will be taught the "old fashion African way" of being taught under a large open hut. Education cannot wait for a school building. Please join us as we bring education to Kpetelayama village. For more information, contact the Project Director, Peg Halvorsen-#715-514-4300 Donations can be made here:

Habakkuk's Well
Update- Habakkuk's well was put in at Kpetelayama Village in April of this year.We had opportunity to be there for the well dedication. It was a momentous and humbling event. This well was put in in memory of Habakkuk, a little boy who died from the contaminated water used in the village. It was also in dedication to Jeremiah Flomo who was adopted by the McClure family and wanted to give back to his community.

Mark and Peggy Halvorsen had been preparing to adopt two brothers from Liberia, West Africa, for the past year. In 2009, their hearts were broken when they were told that their youngest boy, Habakkuk, then 2 ½ , had died of cholera, a disease acquired from drinking contaminated water. Habakkuk lived and died in a village with no well. He is not the only child who died for lack of clean water.

Today we can rejoice that Kpetelayama village has clean safe drinking water. Thank you for partnering with us to make Habakkuk's Well a reality for the people of Kpeletayama Village and Suakoko District!
