Opportunity BasketLiberia Education Payment Plan Network (LEPN)
A community-based installment payment system that allows low-income families to pay school fees in 10–12 small monthly payments instead of lump sums, backed by a network of microfinance partners and school administrators who guarantee enrollment. Families register once, receive a payment schedule tied to their income cycle (harvest, wage day, remittance arrival), and schools receive guaranteed payment from LEPN within 5 days of enrollment—eliminating their cash-flow risk.

Value Proposition
Eliminates the lump-sum payment cliff that keeps children out of school. Schools get paid on time and full enrollment commitment; families pay what they can afford when they can afford it. Beats faith-based subsidies because it's predictable, scalable, and doesn't depend on charity or religious affiliation.
Target Audience
