Over 50% of Liberian Languages are Endangered
Since 2020, our organization has been growing and evolving to match the fast pace of this critical work. Indigenous communities need our help now; their health, cultures, and languages cannot afford to wait.
As a non-profit, we are proud of the progress we have made and the impact we have been fortunate enough to have on endangered language reclamation.
As we continue to evolve, our core mission has not changed. We still very much believe in our resources’ impact on the many communities we have been fortunate enough to work with.
But we want to do more. We want to empower communities around Liberia to teach, learn, and sustain their endangered languages. We want to act as a platform for all communities and individuals who have entrusted us to help them.
We envision a world where all communities have the resources and opportunities to reclaim, strengthen, and revitalize their endangered languages.
In the coming months, years and decades we are determined to surpass our goals, empower more communities, and shine more light on the importance of endangered language reclamation. We hope you will join us in our fight.
