Adult Literacy Classes

One of Liberia Now's projects is adult literacy classes.  We went to watch the class on Monday night.  The students are 12 women from ages 22 to 48.  They have children and go to market to sell everyday and then three evenings out of the week they travel to go to reading class.  Half of them did not even know their ABC's when they started the class last September.  They can all read now!  They all had their latest assignment to read to me.  They are my heroes!
