🏗️ Building Plans
We are proud to share the architectural and structural designs for the RIFES campus—a future-forward space built to educate and empower.
Morris Matadi, once recruited as a child soldier at age 11 during Liberia’s civil war, has transformed his life into a mission of hope and healing.
He is the founder and CEO of the Initiative for the Development of Former Child Soldiers (IDEFOCS), a nonprofit that provides trauma counseling, drug rehabilitation, vocational training, and education for former child soldiers and at-risk youth in Liberia.
He also established the IDEFOCS@Rilo Foundation Educational School System (RIFES), offering free education to children impacted by war and addiction.
Featured by BBC and Channels Television, Morris is a powerful voice for peace, education, and community empowerment.
Helping Hugs For Children
Children are the future of our world. Every child deserves the chance to thrive, no matter the circumstances they are born into or must endure.
We provide children and youth with opportunities to learn, grow, and build better lives for themselves, their families, and their communities.
Though many come from extreme poverty with little access to resources, their spirits shine with hope and dreams for a brighter future.
When given the chance to learn and contribute, they are eager to uplift their communities and create lasting change..
