About Us

The Association for the Advancement of Liberian Girls (AALG) is a registered NGO in Liberia established as an advocate for the advancement of Liberian females through education, philanthropy, and social activities. AALG is also incorporated as a Maryland non-profit organization.

 

What started as a casual conversation in a restaurant between a group of elderly Liberian men and their sexual exploitation of young girls in Liberia has turned into a powerful network of Liberian women wanting to bring change to the country’s traditional male dominance.

 

We hope to recruit more members who are willing to help in the fight for equity in education and social standard for Liberian women and girls.

 

Our Mission:  

Our mission is to advocate for the advancement of Liberian females through education, philanthropy, and social activities

 

AALG will be an advocate and visible leader in equity and education which girls can feel free to empower to help them and their community.
