Help Liberia Foundation did a presentation about Africa in general Liberia in Primary School No.1 in a town called Stary Sacz.
The foundation was invited by the headmaster of the school, Mr. Zdzislaw Wojnarowski. The presentation, which was held on the 13th of November 2007, brought together students, administrators, teachers, and support staff of the school. The children were especially interested in everything about Africa. They wanted to know almost everything, and they showed it by the many questions they asked. It was wonderful.

Mrs. Anna Dobrowolska and Mrs. Justyna Maciuszek of Help Liberia Foundation conducted the presentation, and it was accompanied by a mini-display of pictures from Liberia, as well as other items from Africa, including bags, sculptures, beads and rattles. Mrs. Dobrowolska presented Africa and Liberia, and Mrs. Maciuszek showed different items to the children. The children also had the opportunity to play the African drum – they liked it very much. Some of the boys did it really well, although it was their first time playing it.
