Voinjama, Lofa County - Tears of joy streamed down Evelyn Williams’ face, on the weekend as she enjoyed a day she once thought would never come. Ms. Williams became one of a handful of women to graduate from Lofa County Community College (LCCC) walls with an AA degree. As the Ebola crisis strained her family Williams GPA dropped below 3.0 and NOCAL said they would drop her. Evelyn was among 28 students who suffered the effect of dropping from the NOCAL scholarship scheme, through the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility program. She has interned with a construction company in Lofa County and hopes one day soon to be involved with major infrastructure projects in her country.
