Hello friends & family! Thanks for taking a few minutes to learn about this amazing project. We’re coming together to raise funds to build a medical facility for those in need in Liberia.
This project is close to our hearts because it was started single handedly by our dear friend, Saybah. She came into our lives as a wonderful caregiver for not one, but two family members. With her kind, compassionate and nurturing spirit, she became our family member too, so we are in this together! And we hope you will join us by donating!
Please reach out if you would like more info or if you would like to be a monthly donor. We need you!

Miranda will share her story of her special relationship with Saybah...
Hello Family, Friends and Colleagues,
I want to share something very near and dear to my heart and ask that you will indulge me by reading this story.
Over the last 4+ years I have had personal heartbreaking losses. First my sister passed away in 2020, then my beloved husband in 2021 and most recently my precious mother in 2024. We were blessed to have a wonderful person come into our lives named Saybah Borlay – a Liberian native who came to the US after enduring a difficult life in West Africa. She came to America, studied and became a caregiver in the healthcare industry working in hospitals, nursing homes and ultimately in private care.
Saybah came into our home and cared for my late husband who over the years became more and more frail. In the last few months of his life, he took a turn and passed away after an infection could not be controlled with hospitalization nor medications and antibiotics. Saybah cared for my husband every day while I was at work. She quickly went from my husband’s caregiver to becoming a member of our family. Her care, compassion and love for our family was undeniable and completely genuine. She was with our family the morning he passed away.
A few months before my husband died, my mother had a stroke and Saybah quickly jumped into action to help me care for them both. After my husband’s death, Saybah cared every day for my mother with the same love and compassion. She was by my side when my mother passed away and we both held her hand as she left this earth to be with the Lord.
Saybah is always thinking of others and how she can help them. She is a single mother and loves her family and is devoted to her faith. Saybah too has had losses in her life, her husband died in Liberia and her youngest child died in a tragic car accident in 2023. Today she and her 2 surviving children live a blessed life because of Saybah’s hard work and the kindness she gives to everyone she comes in contact with. She is truly one of the most selfless people I have ever met and has been a gift from God to our family.
While my husband and my mom have passed away, Saybah is and will always continue to be a part of our family.
My goal in writing to you all is that we, myself and my 2 nieces, have been working together with Saybah to raise money for her dream of opening a clinic in Liberia where healthcare is rare and typically only available to those who can afford to pay. All the while medications are scarce even when those who can pay have the funds to do so but still cannot receive medications for simple health issues.
If you visit the link below it will take you to the GoFundMe page and read in her own words why she wants to continue this project and also where you can donate to this amazing cause.
Thank you for reading this story and I pray that your life will always be blessed.
Sincerely,
Miranda Pulliam
Please meet Saybah…
My name is Saybah Borlay, a native of the Republic of Liberia in West Africa. I am a single mother currently living in the US.
I'd like to share my story and the birth of a burning desire to take action in my community, inspiring me to create an impact in the lives of my people by building the Moringa Care Clinic in Monrovia Liberia.
Growing up in my home country of Liberia, poverty was unfortunately the norm of the day. Most of the Liberian community lived with only one meal a day. Pregnant women were dying during childbirth due to lack of adequate medical facilities. Children were suffering and many dying of malnutrition and sicknesses, mostly due to poor sanitation.
Sadly, these situations worsened for almost twelve years during the civil war that ravaged the country and brought it down to almost nothing. The few medical facilities and government institutions that we did have were destroyed, leaving the people and the country in abject poverty.
Thousands were killed, properties destroyed, hundreds of thousands of people displaced with thousands more fleeing for their lives into neighboring countries seeking refuge.
After the war, people returned to their cities and towns with literally nothing, totally dependent upon UNHCR and other agencies for their daily sustenance. The cry for help was so loud and the need for assistance was very high.
It was this ugly situation that finally heightened my desire and pushed me into action to single-handedly undertake the construction of a 20-bed clinic to help those in need. The clinic will be a medical resource for pregnant women, children, orphans, those without homes, and many others in our communities that need access to free medical consultations and treatments.
The current project build for the Moringa Care Clinic started in 2022 in Monrovia, Liberia. Work completed to date includes the foundation and walls, but we currently do not have funds to complete the roof and continue the project.
Our goal is to raise enough money to complete this facility so that it can be a source of great relief and assistance for humanity.
Additionally, as recently as 2014/15, there was an outbreak of Ebola disease in the country that killed hundreds of people, resulting in thousands of children orphaned and without parents. Many more ended up on the street due to lack of care.
Currently, death rates are very high among pregnant women and, of course, high poverty rates continue. The government is not in a position to tackle all these problems on their own. For the love of my country, these crises inspired me to answer the call of making a difference in the lives of my people and country, especially through healthcare projects.
Furthermore, this project would create job opportunities for many to put food on the table for their families and possibly pay their children's school fees.
It is for these goals that I am asking for your donation to support me in bringing this endeavor to a successful completion in a timely manner.
In advance, let me end this request by expressing my deep appreciation to each of you for your generous support towards the completion of this clinic that our community is in dire need of. May God richly bless you all and let the works of our hands prosper to the glory of God.
Sincerely Yours,
Saybah Borlay
