This month marked a major milestone for the Sarbo Development Center in Sweaken, River Gee County, Liberia, as the Center received electricity for the first time. With power now flowing to the facilities—including a newly electrified powerhouse—this transformative step brings light and energy to the campus, opening up fresh opportunities for students and the surrounding community.
Electricity is more than just light; it’s a foundation for learning, growth, and development. Reliable power means the Center can support evening classes and vocational training programs, expanding learning options that would have been challenging without it. Students will benefit from enhanced learning experiences, and the Center will be able to offer more comprehensive resources to the community.
Powering the campus, including the powerhouse, was a significant achievement made possible through the collaboration of local leaders, the Sarbo Unity Foundation, and dedicated donors. This accomplishment reflects the commitment of supporters who believe in the value of investing in education and community infrastructure. The entire community came together to install and celebrate this transformative addition, united in their commitment to a brighter future for the region.
Electricity also brings critical improvements for vocational training, enabling the Center to introduce new programs in trades that require power tools and specialized equipment. This development will better prepare students for future careers, creating greater economic possibilities for River Gee County.
Looking Ahead: What’s Next for the Sarbo Development Center
With electricity and a fully operational powerhouse, the Sarbo Development Center is ready to make an even greater impact. The Foundation plans to introduce new programs that will enrich the learning environment, broaden the Center’s reach, and empower more students.
