Liberty launches new 'Making People Free' website

The international Christian aid charity Liberty has launched its new website called 'Making People Free' to tell even more people about the hundreds of thousands of people in Africa its evangelistic outreach has helped transform since its inception in 1999.

In just under ten years, the charity has built sixty village churches and primary schools, and provided bursaries for further education, established adult literacy classes, agricultural empowerment programmes, and free healthcare in regions where those without the means to pay have to go without.

Last year alone sixty people, who live in villages so remote that they do not have the means to travel to the cities, received free cataract operations using the latest laser technology.

Offering support and relief for people living in often forgotten rural regions in West Africa, setting people free is not only their mission statement but also the raison d'etre for this organisation.

The driving vision behind this work is to see the successes achieved in the villages where Liberty has worked, replicated in every village across Africa.

Founder Rev Kate Jinadu, sees Liberty as an empowerment charity committed to setting people free body, mind and spirit.

"We have built some sixty village churches, two village schools, and awarded twenty six university scholarships so far. Our schools provide education for 500 children who would otherwise not have the opportunity to learn," she said.

"We offer free, adult literacy classes and have sunk nine wells and boreholes, which provide the only source of clean drinking water for ten villages.

"All this may sound a bit factual but the reality is that we have witnessed the transformation of thousands of needy people. We have seen them lifted out of poverty and into physical, spiritual and mental wholeness," Jinadu added.
