The R.E.A.P Liberia Website

In keeping with the logistical goal of Service To Servants, we help to move information into and out of Liberia for the benefit of Christian organizations working within Liberia. One of these organizations is Restoration of Educational Advancement Programs (REAP).

The founder and president of REAP is Christine Tolbert Norman, daughter of the late William R. Tolbert, former president of the Republic of Liberia. Christine has a great desire to see the youth of Liberia given the opportunity to obtain a quality education, relevant job skills training and life skills to enable them to become productive citizens.

To provide opportunities to disadvantaged youths, Christine is attempting to resurrect a dream of her father’s which includes the restoration and operation of the William Richard Tolbert, Jr. Indigent Children Empowerment and Resource Center (the “Center”).

The Center is located on 50 acres of land approximately 30 miles outside of Monrovia, Liberia. The property is lush, rolling countryside near the town of Bensonville (changed to Bentol many years ago in honor of President Tolbert). There are coconut trees planted on several acres and 5 buildings which are structurally sound for major refurbishment. The first need is to obtain the funds required to transfer the property into a trust for use by REAP. Very soon after that the Liberian government will require proof of use for its intended purpose which will necessitate the refurbishment of at least one building.
