Though it is much later than planned, we finally published the 2014 Annual Report (see attached). Our apologies for this delay, but the wait is worth it. We are eager to share what was accomplished and learned in 2014 from your most generous support. Also, this report provides perspectives from our youth and country director about living through the Ebola Crisis. Our annual report is interactive, so please click on any hyperlinks and icons throughout this document. We plan to have the 2015 Annual Report published by the second quarter of 2016, which is our normal schedule.
Special Thanks goes to Diane, Kelvin, Miriam, Florkime, Anna, George, Princess, Patrick and Ishmael for either contributing to or editing this annual report!
We also launched our new Media page where you can access all our past Annual Reports, Audio and Video, News Articles and Press Releases related to our work.

Our learning center continues to get a flow of new students who hear about this from word of month. Since our youth has requested for more items, we asked them to share why this center matters to their education. The following student participated in our Backpacks for Peace training last year and is a second-year scholarship student:
Deborah values the opportunities she receives from UDS and does what she can to give back to others. Since we are always in need of volunteers, Deborah helps with study classes for younger students as shown below.
Deborah is one of about 50 students who utilize our learning center to help with their educational needs. We hope her story inspires you to support their wishes to add more books, tables and chairs, fans, computers and other learning materials. We have raised $1267.34 or 51% of our $2,500 goal. As little as $10.00 can do a lot to achieve their wishes. Please contribute by credit or debit card by clicking the DONATE BUTTON below.
