Liberia Watch

Never heard of this group, but it sounds good:

"...a coalition of Africa-focused organizations in the United States have [sic] appealed to Congress to provide $195 million in funding for Liberia's most urgent needs. The appeals were issued in a series of letters to key Senate and House members, signed by leaders from a number of organizations, including Africare, the National Council of Negro Women, the NAACP, the Academy for Educational Development, Africa Society, Constituency for Africa and Bread for the World, along with several prominent individuals including former senior State Department officials."

Their letter is reprinted here.
