Friends of
Guinea (FOG) is pleased to announce its collaboration with the National Peace
Corps Association, Friends of Liberia, and Friends of Sierra Leone on the Ebola
Relief Fund. Launched by the National
Peace Corps Association and directed by PCVs and RPCVs who know and love the
affected countries, the Ebola Relief Fund will give financial assistance to
organizations providing help and relief during this painful time.
FOG Members
and current Guinea PCVs Sara Laskowski and Ryan Plesh are representing FOG on
the steering committee and working now to identify groups in Guinea to receive
these funds. Organizations will be required
to meet certain funding requirements and complete a brief application. If you
can recommend an organization to receive funding, please contact Sara
