The Buduburam Refugee Camp was established in 1990 by the Ghanian Government and the UNHCR when the second civil war erupted in Liberia. The camp is home to over forty-five thousand refugees. It is located on the Cape Coast road about an hour drive from Ghana's capital, Accra.

I actually know of a child currently working at the refugee camp. It's a heartbreaking story, really. He's carrying loads around camp for a small fee so that he can save up enough money for he and his grandmother to go home. There's an awesome couple, though, that's helping them out =] There need to be more people like them (and you) in the world.
