OUR ALMA MATER
LOYAL WE SHALL EVER BE !
We are a group of fun loving Alumni, former students and affiliates from the Monrovia College & Industrial Training Institute in Monrovia, Liberia.
Formerly located on Camp Johnson Road, the school is now located on Clay Street opposite the Monrovia Demonstration Elementary School. The school's mascot is a 'Monkey'.
We are commonly called MC, Monkey Camp, or the Monkeys.

INDUSTRIAL TRAINING INSTITUTE
Realizing that the mission to rebuild the school to its pre-war status was not only the responsibility of the Administration, but also on us, "LOYAL WE SHALL EVER BE".

The Association was blessed the following year with Bishop Aspirant Rev. Dr. Keturah York Cooper, as its guest speaker at the 2016 Reunion in Newark, New Jersey. Rev. Dr. York-Cooper invested in countless M.C.A.A.A members as a teacher. She is also the daughter of our beloved late great “Sweet Mother”, Dr. Louise C. York, President, Monrovia College (1974 to 1985).

To date, we remain strong as we strive to grow and continue to support the school with scholarships and subsidizing the president’s and some teachers’ salaries. We are incorporated as a National Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) in the state of New Jersey and a Registered 501 (c) 3, a not-for-profit organization with the Internal Revenue Services. Ninety-nine and a half percent of all donations to the MCAAA come from our beloved members and fundraising programs that are held throughout the year by several different chapters. One hundred percent of all donations to the MCAAA is tax deductible.
