Monrovia – Over 100,000 orphans in Liberia are in dire need of aid as they currently have no access to clean water, food and cannot meet their basic needs, according to a recent assessment by The Akhirah Team, a UK based charity. The Akhirah Team has been working with a local charity, Vision for Liberia Inc., to discover the number of orphans that have been abandoned, causing them to live in extremely poor conditions. Rashid arrived in Monrovia to conduct an assessment of over 20 orphanage homes in six counties in order to provide support for them. “The Akhirah team estimates that with the support and the team on the ground the orphan situation can be sorted. The Akhirah team is a non-profit organization and all the funds go directly to the causes which its raised for.
