Friends Integrated for Remarkable Excellence, Inc.
The Women of F.I.R.E, Inc., a humanitarian organization of Liberian women, was founded in August of 2002 and is a registered non-profit corporation in the state of Georgia. The Women of F.I.R.E., Inc. is organized exclusively for charitable purposes within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and is legally recognized as such. F.I.R.E.’s primary purpose is to offer assistance to grassroots entities serving the underprivileged in Liberia, with a particular focus on women and children.
F.I.R.E. was organized in response to the overwhelming need for humanitarian assistance in Liberia, a country recovering from 14 years of civil strife. Our organization is currently operated with 100% volunteer effort, our membership being comprised of Liberian women who share a passion for charitable efforts and our heritage. Collectively, we give of our time and energy to support organizations that offer assistance to the needy in Liberia, as we believe such efforts will positively impact our community and country. Our members actively commit resources and talents to raising funds in order to achieve F.I.R.E.’s goals. In addition to soliciting donations and grants, we host local fundraisers in the Atlanta area.
OUR MISSION
We stand to encourage individual growth, outstanding progress and to promote excellence as a group through envisioning, strengthening, developing and actualizing collective ideas.
We believe that by encouraging the individual growth of children in Liberia, we will foster in them a sense of self-worth and instill the belief in the greater good and a better society. We also stand for excellence and promote progress wherever we can, in order to create opportunities for children, women and men to better themselves, their communities and their nation through education.
