In the last year alone SASEF has done so much for youth and youth based organisations it is hard not to aknowledge the impact of their work. In Liberia alone they have given higher education scholarships to several young people underscoring SASEF's committment to providing educational opportunbities for young people whenever and wherever possible.The organisation, has been, and continues to, mentor and advise a number of youth baased organisationsin Liberia, inclunding Messengrs of Peace- Liberia (MOP), Calvary Empowerment Team (CET) and YOCADS, to name a few. The opening of the chilren's libary in Bazil earlier this year further underscores SASEF's committment to providing tandible educcation support facilities to youth all over the world. The unwavering drive and energy of Founding Chair, Rhonda Staudt -with the support of the Board- to ensure that the organization stays true to its madate is to be commended and clearly demonstrates that focused intent can move mountains.

I was a shy person before I came across this organization.But during my few years as a volunteer,i was able to get rid of shyness to usefulness in my country.Two year ago I never knew the potentials that were in me until I attended workshop headed by the Shirley Ann Sullivan Educational Foundation,due to my performance I was consider as a volunteer.All my days of volunteering with this organization I have cultivated the shill,ability and knowledge to serve in my country as a potential and determined youth.This organization also link me with relevant personality in my country and outside.Lastly it enable me to be professional in work,computer and in life.The few years I volunteer for this organization it change my life greatly.

As Co-Founder of SASEF I have had the privilege and honor to helping her grow to help thousands of young people all over the world. There are no words to express the joy in helping a young person discover and steer the path of personal and professional success. Together with an incredible team of volunteers (there are no paid persons at SASEF) I have learned patience in the process of helping. As I write this review the word DIGNITY and CHARACTER continue to come to mind. These are two very important pieces to the puzzle that always stand at the forefront of impacting a human beings life. It's a joy, pleasure and again an honor to be part of the SASEF family. Thank you to everyone who has been part of this ten year journey and an invitation to join us in the journey if you have not already done so.

SASEF is one of the outstanding nonprofit organizations that aids the third world children in broaden their horizons and giving their willing hearts and mind a chance to grow. This nonprofit organization created fundraising ethics by setting up a library and giving the children the ability to freely education themselves. Children are our future and that is the concern of SASEF.

The time and the evidence is in my view elements that can lead people to conclude that indeed would SASEF is an institution that deserves reputation and trust which its areas of focus, are Children and Youth which are the Future and the strength of any nation. Thus with development commitments established by the various agencies, both UN and Governments SASEF is also proposed to contribute working engaged with its partners and volunteers to provide ways and catalyze attention to this fringe of society with much needs and deserves support from various accounts (Health, Education, Leisure, technical training, work and welfare etc).
In this particular SASEF has been working hard in Education health, technical education by giving scholarships (Hope School of the Future 45 children from 1st to 8th grade, the 9th University), health education in terms of basic health care (Pediatric Hospital of Luanda), as technical training and preparing young people for their first job with the SASEF its partners have created the YES-Angola that serves as a database of young people with technical skills, establishing institutional contacts for sponsorship for jobs at various youth projects and develop autonomously Community scope for personal development and family."If that who do not live to serve does not meant to live" so soon I realized that it is necessary to serve so that my existence serve for something ... so influenced by the noble cause of SASEF and so I had been in a day a needed one, so I needed support from someone so that I can stand on myself in society, so as a gratitude I share the same work a bit and giving my best to an ever better world...

It is my great privilege to know Rhonda Staudt and to have seen, first hand, the heartwarming results of SASEF. The work they do is a lifeline to the children they help, help that wouldn't have found them any other way, due to their socioeconomic and geographic challenges. The drive and determination of Ms. Staudt and the members of SASEF, to see the progress they have made and the goals they have achieved, is truly inspiring!

The Foundation has been instumental in making positive life changes. The benfits the youth gain are necessary in becoming productive adults and being role models for other youth to follow. To know the value of education in todays society is the grass roots of this foundation. I applaud the Founder and all the volunteers for their Committment dedication and most importantly their devotion to providing education to children around the world.
