 A United States based Liberian group Pro-USA organization has put together its Liberia Coordinating Administration, comprising top sporting personalities. They are charged with the responsibility to steer the ship of Pro-USA in Liberia.
The pronounced was contained in a dispatch from the USA, signed by Kama B. Kamara, Acting Secretary-General, and approved by Duannah Siryon, Chairman, of Pro-USA.
  The Liberian chapter is made up of two former chief football referees Mason Goe and Idrissa Kaba as well as former Lone Star national team coach Kadala Kromah. The rest are sports promoter Joseph Farkollie, Mrs. Geraldine Doe-Sheriff, Executive Committee Member, Liberia Football Association (LFA), former goalkeeper Kasimu Sillah and Mr. Alfred W. Sayon.
  According to the group, the decision was unanimously taken by the membership at the Association's General Meeting on Sunday, March 13th, 2009.
  “We have come to recognize you as one of the vibrant community and sporting leaders among Liberians both in Liberia and the greater Diasporas. We know such recognition does not come only with huge responsibility but with the ideology as well as the wonderful services you have and continue to render in the name of sports development and promotion in Liberia,” Pro-USA said. The Pro-USA is a newly formed foreign based Liberian Non Governmental Organization with headquarters in Minnesota, USA. As Liberian sport lovers in the Diasporas, the group has realized that the future development of Liberian youth must not be limited to the government alone, but rather to be done by all citizens who sincerely believe in the concept and the enterprise of sports.The organization argues that these future leaders have not been opportune to benefit from the standard educational, social and health of our global society yet, with the economy continually suffering greater depression due to lack of strategic lasting plan that will enhance the formation and the subsequent development and promotion of sports in Liberia, which is considered to be long overdue.
The objectives of Pro-USA include to help unify the Liberian people through sports after 14 years of civil unrest; to help rehabilitate and empower ex-combatants that will eventually maximize their skills through the game of sports; to create an environment in Liberia where Liberians are encouraged and can challenged themselves through sports, develop good moral characters, and strive for educational advancement and live with a positive attitude despite their cultural or social backgrounds; to establish and maintain a sports academy in Liberia for the promotion of sports and recreation; and physical fitness for healthy living; to empower and capacitate the youths of Liberia in identifying and recognizing their potentials through sports; and to foster reintegration and civic engagement.
