Invest in Ruth's Future as an Optometrist

Donation protected
Let me introduce you to Ruth, a young woman from Liberia, West Africa, pursuing a Bachelor's degree in optometry. Sadly, her homeland is still suffering from the ravages of war. Life there remains challenging, with many people struggling just to survive.

In the midst of these challenges, Ruth is using her God-given gifts to break through the barriers and make a difference. Until recently, her expenses were covered by the generosity of an aunt who funded her education at CT University in Punjab, India. Unexpectedly, her aunt passed away, and Ruth is in urgent financial need to complete her education.

If you are able and willing to help Ruth, it is more than a gift. It is an investment that will make a big difference, not only for Ruth, but for all of the people she will be able to serve as an optometrist.

In a day when so many people give up on themselves or their circumstances, this courageous young woman is ready to do the work it takes to break through to hope.

In her own words:

"I am from west Africa, Liberia. I am 22 years of age .
I choose Optometry because I have passion for the course and I want to help people in the society. I have seen lots of people from Africa and especially my country suffering from poor eyes sights, which they lack help because there is no doctors or optometrist to help them. And for that, they have to travel out of the country to get treated.

I plan to further my education by getting my masters degree and giving back to society, what I have learn."

Let's be a part of Ruth's story. Let's invest in this world-changer and meet her expenses for 2025-2026 school year (due to graduate in 2027). It is a gift that will continue to give as she serves others. You can join me and start the ripple effect.

I will personally get these funds to her and keep you posted on her progress every step of the way.

You can make a one-time gift OR choose to give monthly. If only 40 people could invest $10 a month, we can keep her in school. For the price of just one large gourmet coffee or fast food lunch per month, you could change someone's destiny.

Let's do this!
