Cornelius Keagon

Cornelius Tuayan Keagon, professionally known by his nickname Senator, is a Liberian investment banker and philanthropist who is most notable for establishing the Liberian humanitarian organization Arts & Positivity in July 2019, where he provides charitable aid through local and international donations. Originally from Nimba County, he is also known for his creative writings and artworks. Keagon attended Stella Maris Polytechnic University in Monrovia from Sep 2017 to Aug 2021. Keagon founded Arts & Positivity in 2019 as a humanitarian and arts organization serving Nimba County alone, but due to the poor conditions of most residents in Montserrado County, Liberia's most populated County, Keagon changed the service of the organization to cover all of Liberia. With only fifteen members at the launch, the organization has significantly grown to over one hundred individuals who work as volunteers. In August 2019, the organization began distributing supplies of food items and clothes to slumps and orphanages in Montserrado County. Due to the organization's policy on secrecy, which was put into law by Keagon, most of the distributions and visits are done at night. In January 2020, the organization began hosting art exhibitions for orphanages, churches, and communities in Montserrado County. Local and international philanthropists and politicians support Arts & Positivity on a full-time basis. The organization also runs a public fund receiving service.
