The US Government, through its relief agency, United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has disclosed that it is reviewing documentation that enabled More Than Me (MTM) to receive a grant from Mercy Corps in 2014.
MTM was one of the grant recipients during the Ebola crises, just around the same time its co-founder McIntosh Johnson, was arrested and sent to prison to await trial.

Ebola disrupts Liberia birth records, poses trafficking threat-
Only 700 children had their births registered between January and May this year, UNICEF says
LONDON, July 31, 2015 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - West Africa's Ebola epidemic has disrupted birth registrations in Liberia, leaving hundreds of thousands of children without citizenship and in danger of being trafficked or illegally adopted, the U.N. children's agency UNICEF said on Friday
Children who have not been registered at birth officially don't exist," said UNICEF's Liberia representative, Sheldon Yett.
"Without citizenship, children… risk marginalisation because they may be unable to access basic health and social services, obtain identity documents, and will be in danger of being trafficked or illegally adopted," he said in a statement.
The worst-known Ebola epidemic in history has killed more than 11,200 people, mostly in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone since the outbreak began in December 2013.
