Aletha's Legacy Announces its 2021 Project
Destin, Fla. - On June 16, 2021, at the home of Joan and Stephen Carter, Aletha's Legacy presented its 2021 project, the renovation of the Children's Future Program & Orphanage in Kakata, Liberia. This orphanage is home to 53 children who lost their parents during the multi-year ebola crisis. The renovation will include a new roof, kitchen, bathrooms, classroom updates, a new computer room, a new library, proper waste disposal, and more.
The proceeds raised during the fundraising event on June 16th totaled $67,000 and will directly impact the future of these orphans in Kakata. Aletha's Legacy is working to fund the remainder of the renovation, which is budgeted to cost $100,000.
In the words of Founder, Zhalman Harris, “Giving for a good cause should have no boundaries.”
