With your help, we can improve the quality of life for underserved Liberians.
Learn about the origin of our foundation.
Liberia, Africa’s oldest republic, still faces immense challenges post-civil war, with only 54% of children completing primary education. Many lack digital literacy skills, particularly women and girls, who face significant barriers to education and employment opportunities. This digital divide reflects global challenges, but it is more pronounced in Liberia, where women have limited access to technology.
Our founder, Johnny Sneh, escaped Liberia during the civil war. After settling in the U.S., Johnny’s deep gratitude and passion for helping underserved Liberians led to the formation of EQ&JS Foundation. Our mission is to bridge the digital divide, uplift underserved communities, and empower women and youth through education.
