Our Story


With a passion to invest in West Africans in their efforts to be economically self-sustainable, a group of like-minded people founded WADSO in 2001. This passion arose in part from relationships with a West African parish priest who served at John XXIII University Church in Fort Collins, Colorado.

With support from people like you, WADSO has successfully helped West Africans finish building the Madonna Hospital in Nigeria that specializes in eye care, orthopedics and surgery, as well as an orphanage for children with disabilities in Ghana (Nazareth Home for All’s God’s Children). WADSO also supports educational and agricultural initiatives in Cote d’Ivoire.

WADSO raised support for Ebola prevention and relief in Liberia (Transformation International) and for security guards and internet access at another Nigerian hospital (Faith Alive Hospital). WADSO has also worked to increase awareness of West Africans’ strengths and struggles and to initiate relationships with some amazing West Africans. View Projects for more information.

Current projects include Madonna Hospital, Transformation International Peanut Butter House Fund, Best Brains International University, and Boys/Girls Scholarships.

WADSO is independent of any specific religious affiliation and welcomes participation from a variety of people and organizations. We are excited in late 2014 to have added new board members and partners in Liberia and Nigeria.

Please consider being part of WADSO during this exciting new chapter of our story.

Leadership


We are a group of volunteers who are passionate about and committed to raising support (money, in-kind donations, and supplies) for life-sustaining and enhancing projects that our West African partners request and lead. We also educate people about the conditions in West Africa and how to help well.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Cindy Cloyd, President
Cindy is a public health nurse with a specialty in maternal-child nursing. She is also an affiliate faculty member at Regis University where she teaches nursing students. Cindy went to Madonna Hospital in 2011 with other WADSO Board members to monitor the construction of the hospital. She provided care at free clinics to local residents. Cindy returned to Madonna Hospital in 2016 on a medical mission where she provided care at free clinics and met with the hospital staff to assess ongoing needs. Fun fact: Cindy likes to sew, knit and bake.


Kent Spangler, Treasurer
Kent first went to Liberia in 2010 with his church to help build the “Peanut Butter House” that provides vitamin-laden nutrition to severely malnourished children and their families through Tarpeh Ministries. He has since taken vacation time away from his career to return to Monrovia. From his experience both in West Africa and rebuilding homes in Mississippi after Hurricane in Gulfport, he believes that having a lasting impact requires lasting relationships (rather than simply building structures and moving on). Kent’s degrees include an undergraduate degree in Economics and a Juris Doctorate in Law, both from the University of Colorado. Random fun fact: Loves to run with his dogs.


Lisa Spangler, Secretary
Lisa earned her Undergraduate degree in Education from the University of Colorado, and her Master’s degree in Reading Development Curriculum and Instruction from National Louis University. She taught in the Colorado public school system. Her love of children’s education took her to Liberia with her husband Kent to serve with Tarpeh Ministries’ Best Brains Academy. She helps guide curriculum decisions and provide teacher training. Lisa travelled to Liberia two more times and led multiple efforts to acquire, organize, and ship educational materials, thanks to support from her elementary school, local businesses, and HELP International. Random fun facts: A mother, grandmother, wife, teacher, friend, sister, daughter, Liberian lover, knitter, runner, and furry-dog-lover who never quite knows which hat she is wearing on an hourly basis!


Doran Geise
Doran’s first trip to Monrovia, Liberia was in January of 2010 to help build the Peanut Butter House (PBH). He returned again with Kent and others in 2012 to do additional coordination with in-country partners and work on the PBH facility. There were many times during the development, funding, building and on-going management of the PBH that it seemed the vision would not be realized, however, we have been blessed by Luther and Christine Tarpeh, Transformation International, the people of Liberia and our partners for successfully feeding people in need in Liberia. Doran graduated from Iowa State University with a BLA (Landscape Architecture) and has provided Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and other technology services for various industries, most recently freight railroads. He works at Bartlett & West, a civil engineering and technology company based in Topeka, Kansas.

Madonna Hospital

Madonna Hospital began as a clinic, specializing in eye care. From 2006-2010, WADSO raised funds to complete the construction of the 2 story hospital. From 2008-present, WADSO has worked with partner organizations to send 6 shipping containers filled with donated medical equipment to Madonna Hospital. In 2021, WADSO participated in a Rotary Global Grant to purchase new laboratory equipment for Madonna Hospital.

Madonna Hospital currently serves more than 1,000 patients/month in its 100-bed facility with five patient wards and eight departments. Emergency services are provided immediately, regardless of the patient’s ability to pay. Both in-patient and out-patient services are available for children and adults, with a preferential option for the poor. Madonna Hospital is the referral center for smaller outlying hospitals including Mercy Hospital, St. Michael’s Hospital and St. Nicholas Hospital.

In 2011 and 2016, members of the WADSO Board visited Madonna Hospital. You can see the hospital, meet some of the hospital staff and patients by viewing this video made by Chris Cloyd: https://vimeo.com/336499799 .

Madonna Hospital Update April 2, 2024:

In early 2023, WADSO became aware that Madonna Hospital did not have access to municipal water and relied totally on a well on the property for water. This well was approximately 20 years old. If anything happened to the well or the electric pump, the hospital would have to close. WADSO raised $6,800 so that a new well could be drilled and fitted with a solar powered pump. The well is providing high quality water.

In late 2023, the solar power system for the hospital stopped working because the original batteries wore out and needed to be replaced. WADSO raised the funds to purchase and install two lithium batteries. Lithium batteries are superior to the original batteries. The solar power system is functioning very well.

In 2022, the municipal electrical power supply was very inconsistent and the hospital generator was running frequently. Eventually the generator wore out and could not be repaired. WADSO sponsored a fundraiser that raised almost $14,000. A used 125 kva generator was purchased for the hospital and it is working well.

In early 2021, a Rotary Global Grant provided five new pieces of equipment for Madonna Hospital’s laboratory. Prior to 2011, most of the lab tests were done manually which was time intensive. The new automated equipment has enabled the lab to double the number of tests that are done, which is a dramatic increase.



Best Brains International University

The Best Brains International University (BBIU) . was created on June 8, 2018 when the vision bearer (Rev. Dr. J. Luther Tarpeh) presided over the first meeting with two like-minded professionals - Rev. Christine A. Tarpeh and Mr. Anthony F. Williams.

The goal of the University is to operate a state of the art technological institution, shifting the dynamics from traditional learning to a digital e-learning environment that will help in addressing numerous challenges that are confronting the learning atmosphere.

Best Brains International University (BBIU) is committed to academic excellence, the development of ethical leadership, nurtured collaborative working relationships with others and a sense of patriotic spirit to country first.

Committed to the development of the whole person (the heart and the head) they have created the following:
  • School of Business
  • School of Education
  • School of Liberal Arts
  • School of Social Sciences
  • School of Information Technology
BBIU also offers eight different Certificate and Diploma fields of study.

Ebola Relief

Partners:
Transformation International,
First Presbyterian Church (Fort Collins)

Before February 2015, Liberian Revs. Luther and Christine Tarpeh of Transformation International described the current situation in Monrovia as a “nightmare.” Their most pressing need was for money to purchase chlorine and sanitizer for Ebola prevention, and food for their students and neighbors: the price of food there has doubled during this crisis. Transformation International projects include primary & secondary education, residential youth facilities, and nutrition through the Peanut Butter House that makes and distributes fortified peanut butter to severely malnourished people.

Thanks to you and a generous donation from First Presbyterian Church in Fort Collins, Colorado, WADSO was able to send enough money to meet many of their emergency needs



Nazareth Orphanage (Ghana)

 

In rural parts of Ghana, children born with a physical deformity, disability, or anomaly such as twin pregnancy are considered “spirit children.” Infants who are born with disabilities are often “sacrificed” because they are considered a bad omen.

Rev. Sister Stan Terese M. Mumuni, a Ghanian sister in the Marian Sisters of Eucharistic Love (MASEL), is doing something great to save these children. She founded a Catholic orphanage (Nazareth Home for All God’s Children) that welcomes children regardless of religion, tribal grouping, income, language, social or educational background, or extent and severity of physical disabilities. Sister Stan negotiates with parents to bring these little ones to her orphanage. The first goal of the ministry is to rescue the children and then, in time, to demonstrate to the parents and community at large that the children are not “evil spirits” and that they can and should be loved and cared for.

She describes her response to this evil, saying, “We give ourselves to God for the service of persons who are poor; we meet the marginalized, and those cut off from the sunlight of companionship in our large human family. We are called to the vocation of love.”

In December of 2010, WADSO financed a team of volunteer engineers, architects and other design professionals under the auspices of EMI (Engineering Ministries International) to travel to Yendi in Ghana, Africa. Their goal was to develop a plan for the infrastructure and buildings which would house orphans who lived in run-down conditions with no running water in the village of Sang.

Phase I of the orphanage was completed in 2014 and now houses the children! Future phases include a primary/secondary school, a vocational school, a medical facility, and an animal and vegetable farm.

For those interested in following the progress of the orphanage or to donate, please go to Sister Stan’s Children, a nonprofit public charity based in Nashville, Tennessee. WADSO successfully completed our funding for the Nazareth Home in Ghana.


Context:
The Catholic Diocese of Yendi is a very rural diocese situated in the northeastern province of Ghana amid the Muslim territory of the Sahel region of West Africa. The majority of the people are illiterate. The boys are expected to till the land and girls are often given out in marriage as soon as they reach the age of puberty. Coupled with the above situation of illiteracy and poverty is the fact that in 1994 there was a very brutal ethnic war which led to the destruction of many lives and properties, the effect of which causes untold suffering to this day.



TI Boys and Girls Scholarships

Partner: Transformation International

Revs. Luther and Christine Tarpeh, founding leaders of Transformation International in Monrovia, Liberia, are committed to providing holistic care, including a residential program and schooling fees, for about 20 youth who are orphaned or highly at-risk of being exploited. WADSO is raising money for these youth to attend TI’s Best Brains Academy. $40 a month gives one TI boy or girl the opportunity to attend this state-of-the-art school.

Through the generosity of donors the TIBoys and Girls have become self-sufficient in their education and are now attending BBA and BBIU through local scholarships and other resources. Therefore we no longer are actively involved in this scholarship program.



Best Brains Academy Teachers and Administrators Scholarships

Partner: Transformation International

Best Brains Academy (BBA) is a state-of-the art K-8 school founded on September 5, 2012 by Revs. Luther and Christine Tarpeh with the aim of impacting the total child for the future. Best Brains focuses on a well-balanced academic and extra-curricular program without compromising the high academic standards. As a school they have created the motto:
"Educating the Nation’s Best Brains"
We are BBA.
We’re simply the best.
Run by Christine Tarpeh, who recently achieved her Master’s degree in Education, BBA educates more than 300 students in Monrovia, Liberia graduating 43 High School Seniors this winter. What was once just a dream is now a comprehensive K-8 school that, among other accomplishments, has acquired a new bus for transporting students, created a Student Council Government, formed a Debate Team and even celebrate their successes and unity as a school with Gala Week festivities.

Best Brains Academy celebrates its 10th year! See link to their Facebook page.





Through the dedication and determination of the Rev. Luther Tarpeh and his wife Christine, what once was a dream has become an established reality in Liberia. Known for its high standards and ethical practices these two educational institutions are thriving and educating the future leaders of Liberia. Although we no longer financially support these fine institutions we send our prayers for their continued success.



Security & Internet (Nigeria)

Nigerian Dr. Christian Isichei, Founding Coordinator at the Faith Alive Foundation-Nigeria that provides medical & social services in Jos, is experiencing budget cuts of $53,000 a month from the PEPFAR program (President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief). In the country where terrorists are kidnapping girls and destroying communities, he needs to keep providing security guards 24/7 to protect the hospital that provides medical and social services to up to 10,000 patients a month. FAF-N plans to open an income-generating medical lab but needs help paying security guards for six months until the lab is fully operational.

Thanks to you and a generous donation from First Presbyterian Church in Fort Collins, Colorado, WADSO was able to raise enough enough money to pay for both security guards and internet connectivity for six months.

Nazareth Orphanage

In rural parts of Ghana, children born with a physical deformity, disability, or anomaly such as twin pregnancy are considered “spirit children.” Infants who are born with disabilities are often “sacrificed” because they are considered a bad omen.

Rev. Sister Stan Terese M. Mumuni, a Ghanian sister in the Marian Sisters of Eucharistic Love (MASEL), is doing something great to save these children. She founded a Catholic orphanage (Nazareth Home for All God’s Children) that welcomes children regardless of religion, tribal grouping, income, language, social or educational background, or extent and severity of physical disabilities.

To follow the progress of the orphanage, go to Sister Stan’s Children, a nonprofit public charity based in Nashville, Tennessee. You can donate directly to their organization.



Transformation International

Transformation International (TI) is a ministry in Monrovia, Liberia that was founded by Revs. Luther & Christine Tarpeh to respond to the great needs of post-civil war Liberia. TI’s motto is “Transforming People to Transform the Nation”. It began with “the TI Boys”— providing a home, education, and discipleship for boys, many of whom were orphaned. TI now includes “TI Girls,” as well as leadership development initiatives at the University of Liberia, Best Brains Academy (BBA)—a school seeking to provide and promote higher-quality education–and Libenuts (a project where TI manufactures and distributes fortified peanut butter packets to severely malnourished Liberians).
WADSO has provided emergency Ebola relief to TI and is now raising support for these projects: Libenuts (Peanut Butter House), Best Brains Academy teacher and administrator partial salaries, and TI boys’ and girls’ educational sponsorships.
Please consider becoming a sustaining donor by contributing monthly.



U.S. Partners - Past and Present

ENGINEERING MINISTRIES INTERNATIONAL(EMI) sent a team of engineering professionals to Yendi in Ghana at the request of WADSO. Their mission was to assess and produce comprehensive plans for constructing an orphanage, and develop the plans for the infrastructure needed to support Nazareth Home for All God’s Children. The engineers who made the trip paid their own fares and volunteered their own vacation time to complete this project.


FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, FORT COLLINS has invested in Elim School, Faith Alive Nigeria, and Transformation International since 2007. The congregation donated generously to WADSO’s 2014 Christmas Campaign.


SAINT JOHN XXIII, FORT COLLINS‘ investments were instrumental to successfully completing prior projects.


PROJECT C.U.R.E., located in Centennial, Colorado provided three shipping containers of refurbished and very up-to-date medical equipment to Madonna Hospital in Umuahia, Nigeria. The medical equipment is invaluable in aiding the various medical disciplines in the diagnosis and treatment of patients. Countless volunteer hours were spent in finding and updating the equipment, as well as in moving it to and from the warehouse.


H.E.L.P. INTERNATIONAL, located in Loveland, CO, contributed many medical supplies and countless hours in procuring the supplies to Madonna Hospital in Umuahia, Nigeria.


ROTARIANS of The Fort Collins Breakfast Rotary Club, The Parker Colorado Rotary Club, and the Rotary Club of Umuahia, Nigeria joined with WADSO and generously contributed money to defray the expense of shipping the containers which contained the medical equipment from Project C.U.R.E. Without these valuable partnerships, the equipment would not have made it to West Africa.
