7.I'm MacDella Cooper.I grew up in Monrovia,Liberia,and my family was pretty well-off.My stepfather worked for the United Nations.Every morning a driver took me to the private school. Then in 1989,we heard news of the war.The rebels (反叛者) destroyed every village in their path.They saw our big house and caught my stepfather.He never came back.My mother was on vacation in the US with my three little brothers at that time.For months,I was on my own with my elder brothers.They were 15and 16,hoping our stepfather would return.The rebels took our cars and our house then,so we decided to leave. It took us almost 4years to get to America.By this time,my mother had a couple of jobs and was living in New Jersey.I loved the high school there,and then I got a degree in engineering at college and worked in fashion.I had a great life,but I realized I had forgotten where I had come from.In 2004I started the MacDella Cooper Foundation (基金会).We sent clothes and school materials to more than 500children at five orphanages (孤儿院) in Liberia!I also ran a scholarship programme.I spent Christmas there and held a party for all the kids.I was lucky during the war.Now I have a duty to give something back.
