Our History
In 2014, Joseph Hoffman, a man shaped by hardship and exile, founded the Green Liberia Climate Change & Poverty Mitigators (GLCCPM) to bring hope and healing to his war-ravaged country. Liberia had endured 14 years of brutal civil war, and Joseph, like many others, had lived through the chaos and extreme poverty. When the conflict finally ended, he returned home, determined to make a difference.
