Meet Faith: Bright Star Scholar and Change Maker

Bright Star Scholar Faith, a Marine Biology student at United Methodist University in Monrovia, is turning her education into action—and inspiring a movement along Liberia’s coast. Recently, she led a community-wide beach cleanup, rallying friends, neighbours, and local youth to restore one of Liberia’s most polluted beaches.

But Faith didn’t stop there. Motivated by her love for the ocean and her vision for a cleaner, healthier Liberia, she founded her own non-profit organization dedicated to marine conservation. With contagious energy and determination, she transforms her classroom lessons into community learning—teaching volunteers about the dangers of microplastics and how they harm both marine life and people.

“For me, this isn’t just about picking up trash—it’s about protecting something I love and showing others that one person really can make a difference.”

Faith’s story captures what Universal Outreach’s Bright Star Scholarship Program is all about—how education, opportunity, and heart combine to create young leaders who uplift their communities. When you support a Bright Star Scholar, you’re doing more than funding a degree—you’re unlocking potential.

Faith’s leadership and passion are living proof of what happens when someone believes in a young person’s dream. Every donation fuels a story like hers—one where talent meets opportunity, and the results ripple outward to inspire others.

Thank you to our donors who make this transformation possible. And to those yet to join us—now is the time to invest in Liberia’s next generation of change makers.

Faith: Student, surfer and leader.
