Accomplishments and Impact Program Highlights
This is our flag-ship program. For the past 12 years, GPFA has provided 360º scholarships to 950 to both high school and university students. GPFA’s 360-degree support means that the Programs Team ensures that each student’s housing, food, school supplies and uniforms, and health care are taken care of, as well as transporting students from their home communities to their school or university.
In June, seven GPFA scholars graduated from Cuttington University with undergraduate degrees in Accounting, Science, Nursing, Business Management, and Biology. Thanks to our supporters like you, young people from Liberia and West Africa have access to higher education and support to achieve their dreams.
