Dear brothers and sister in christ Jesus
Dear Sir / Madam
YOUR SINCERE PRAYRES AND INTERVENTION NEEDED
I am in search of an organization/philanthropist for assistance to
enable me further my studies. I am Lawrence Saah Varnie, a Liberian male
refugee, living in Ghana since 1993. In my stay here, I was able to
enroll at Accra Technical Training Centre (ATTC) Accra, where I obtained a
certificate in Motor Vehicle Mechanics, and later furthered my studies
at the Accra Polytechnic, Accra where I also obtained the City and
Guilds -Ghana in Motor Vehicle Technicians part I, II and III through the
help of some philanthropists. I also did a nine months industrial
attachment with Silver Star Auto Limited (Dealers and service providers of
Mercedes-Benz Ghana).
At the moment I have completed the necessary job placement requirements
in Ghana which requires one year National Service. Presently, I have no
job;
hence my desire is to study further for at least a diploma or a degree
in “Logistics and Transport Management” instead of sitting doing
nothing. Pursuant to that, I have been offered admission to pursue an
International Certificate course in Logistics & Transport at the Ghana
Institute of Management & Public Administration (GIMPA) the program at the
cost of ¢12,000,000.00 for a period of six months. The admission letter
herewith attached.
I am therefore writing to appeal to you through this submission to
assist me to pursue this programme and or recommend me to any institution
for assistance if you are unable to assist now perhaps due to resource
constraints.
Please find attached to this letter, the objective of the programme and
its benefit to my nation for the post war reconstruction process.
Yours faithfully,
(Liberian refugee /applicant)
PROPOSED BENEFIT OF LOGISTICS &TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM TO THE
RECONSTRUCTION PROCESS IN LIBERIA
After the internecine civil war in my homeland-Liberia and the several
destructions of transport infrastructure and systems, one envisages a
new beginning for the country in all facets of the economy. Here, new
transportation policy in accordance with what pertains in a global
economy needs to be instituted. Undoubtedly, transport infrastructure
development, management, operations and planning are the heartbeat of any
economy; thus Liberia should not be left out in this global environment.
At the professional and technical level, there is the increasing
recognition of the significance of transport planning and management in any
land use decision which in turn influence developments in transport
technology and transport system capacity. At this juncture, while Liberia
is forging ahead with its reconstruction, transport system in all its
branches must be an essential component in these national undertakings.
Thus my desire to study Logistics & Transport Management at GIMPA is to
equip me with the necessary knowledge and skills to contribute
meaningfully to the development process in Liberia.
Program outline covers the following areas:
-Transport Policy; Transport Economy;
– Movement of Goods; Movement of People;
– Logistics; Accounting etc.
It is my conviction that, with the above knowledge and skills I would
be able to contribute in specific areas such as:
q Training of Drivers on driving techniques (road signs, etc) and
current regulations covering the industry. These I believe would reduce the
number of accidents on the streets of Liberia.
q Upgrade the Department of Driver and Licences Division of the
Ministry of Transport and Communications so as to assist in assessing and
issuing of licenses to qualified persons. This could be achieved by
organizing workshops / short courses to train staff in the Department.
q The course would assist me to adequately represent my country on
transport policy making and implementation at national and international
level in the area of Land, Air and Sea transportation.
q The programme would help me to better teach / train or manage any
established Transport organization, Technical Institution, etc.
it is agaist this background that i am requestingfor a prayers to help me fufil my dreams.
