Since Liberia got her independence from the United States in the 1800, there has been no full time support services for people with special needs in the African country of Liberia. They are neglected, abused and abandoned by people. Many of them in the rural areas are chained, beating and left to fetch for thems
elves. The women are usually raped and they eat from dump sites, trash cans, and sleep in the open under breaches, on beaches and street corners etc. I thought this was normal when I was in my country Liberia growing up. I saw lot of people being treated that way without anyone saying anything nor stepping up to provide support for them so I thought they were created differently to be treated that way and to live in that kind of condition. I came to the United States in 1999 as a refugee due to the 14 years of brutal civil war in my country that killed more than 250,000 people comprising mostly of children, women and the elderly. Upon my arrival in the United States, I saw that people with mental, developmental, blind disabilities/special needs are treated with respect and given full life time support including housing, food, medical, education, daily care, transportation, socialization, community outings etc. In fact I have work in the human services department supporting people with special needs/intellectual disabilities from the year of my arrival to the USA in 1999 to this date as I write. My perception, view, knowledge and experience regarding people with special needs in Africa-Liberia have changed dramatically. I feel very remorseful, guilty and regretful of all the bad treatment melted out to people with disability in Africa. The condition in which people with special needs in my African country of Liberia have troubled my heart and my spirit to the point that I have decided to change their condition by providing full life time support with full 24hrs staffing to people with special needs in Liberia. I have founded a charity call Tambasons Global Human Services Inc-a 501(c) 3 public charity Tax id 46-2711926 to provide them with food, clothing, medical, housing, socialization, staffing empowerment etc. We have many volunteering opportunities that is done both online and offline depending on your area of interest whether it is online or offline and on a short time basis and long term basis, Please use the contact form to sign up right now to help the special needs in Liberia
